No, if the House GOP successfully held out for all the rates to revert to Clinton levels (beyond New Years Day) the American people would have seen them as the party that raised their taxes for the exact goal this author states he wants above, to get all the Bush rates.
This strategy only works if Obama got blamed for it and that wasn't happening, they would simply believe the House GOP raised their taxes for the purpose of exactly what this author suggests, to get all the upper income cut too.
. Either they all were going up or a small % were going up.
BTW : After most Americans figured the GOP raised their taxes (for the purpose this author states he wanted it done for_) and blames Rs for it instead of Dems this author would blame the failure of his great idea on the MSM in typical ritual fashion.
Maybe this author should have run for Speaker and shown us how it is done.
Alternatively O is getting the sole credit for the >=$400K income tax increase by the MSM and most Americans as he ran on it and won. And then he whipped that GOP and got what he demanded (MSM theme).
so when the economy dives into a major depression due to these job creators paying more taxes then voters will demand that Obama pass a massive tax cut fot the >$440K, maybe to zero rates, or risk a major loss in 2014, .
this is perfect, Obama is in a lose-lose and the MSM is helping
So when is the depression starting that the GOP promised us for the past... years if this happened ?
I cant wait till we get to do the gloating for a change.
