Dems nervous about potential GOP investigations if they take over House
Congressman Issa already criticized the administration's plans to remove oversight of the spending undertaken by their Small Business Loan program; I wrote just two weeks ago that investigations were the Democrats worst nightmare if Republicans took either the House or the Senate.
Hence, extraordinary efforts such as the Democrats ploy to restrict the ability of corporations to spend money on "political speech" as highlighted in today's Wall Street Journal editorial .
