In $\bigtriangleup ABC$, $D$ is a point on side $\overline{AC}$ such that $BD=DC$ and $\angle BCD$ measures $70^\circ$. What is the degree measure of $\angle ADB$?

[asy] size(300); defaultpen(linewidth(0.8)); pair A=(-1,0),C=(1,0),B=dir(40),D=origin; draw(A--B--C--A); draw(D--B); dot("$A$", A, SW); dot("$B$", B, NE); dot("$C$", C, SE); dot("$D$", D, S); label("$70^\circ$",C,2*dir(180-35));[/asy]

$\textbf{(A) }100\qquad\textbf{(B) }120\qquad\textbf{(C) }135\qquad\textbf{(D) }140\qquad \textbf{(E) }150$
