But the Amendment put the Dems in a hard position.

Obama is already campaigning For higher Taxes. He is against the highly popular Balanced Budget Amendment. Heck, he is even allergic to budgets.

What it means is that the Dems will not be able to tack to the Middle (their only hope of getting anything in the next election).

No, I am for the Amendment because it sticks it up their craw.
