The rates you provided show why the Reps cannot allow the tax hikes to go up on everyone by the so called "rich." The problem is that those earning over 250,000 (joint) include small business owners that file on the basis individuals. They will be hurt resulting in job losses.

Obama will win the propaganda battle for the reasons you indicate. The Reps cannot allow the tax rates to increase on most of the American people.

And then there is also the battle to extend the 2% payroll tax holiday and unemploymnent payments. Everyone loves Santa Claus.

if things were so wonderful back in the bubba era, let the rates go back to the bubba rates.
