You know that, and I know that, but unfortunately, the media will place all of the blame on the mean, evil Republicans who don't want to raise taxes on the rich.....and the sheeple will believe every word of it.
So? If GOP caves then the Dems win by getting what they wanted. If GOP stands and gets blame, then any possible change will not happen until 2014 and then the Dems will have to win to take over. I'd rather make them win the 2014 House than give them what they want now.
I expect the Drive-bys will hammer Republicans for not following Obama into High Tax Nirvana as a solution to present ills.
I say, let em chatter. Fewer Americans buy what they’re selling every day.
This president has created the crisis. He owns it.
