Conservative groups attack healthcare bill
Liberal and labor groups who favor the healthcare overhaul plans of President Obama and congressional Democrats don't have the airwaves to themselves.
Groups opposed to healthcare "reform" are also airing ads on cable TV, trying to win the hearts and minds of the public as negotiations continue in Congress.
