RE :”Obama: We Are Not Going To Negotiate With The Debt Ceiling, David Taintor 11:19 AM EST, Wednesday December 5, 2012,
President Obama on Wednesday described Republicans who are considering holding the debt ceiling vote hostage in additional negotiations after the so-called fiscal cliff in January as partaking in a “bad strategy for America.”
“I will not play that game,” Obama told business leaders at a quarterly meeting of the Business Roundtable in Washington. “We are not going to play that game next year. We've got to break that habit before it starts.”

Duhhh!
This is why Bohner’s negotiating makes no sense(he is probably just playing to voters sympathy for when the cliff hits but it wont work)

Obama promised those tax increases as a major campaign promises and he won and the polls overwhelmingly show that voters will blame Republicans for the off the cliff(I am sick of that nick-name) , and polls are showing little disapproval of the tax increases O promises, so O hase absolutely no reason to give on anything, and all the reason to hold out till Rs cave. So this negotiation is all a waste of time and attention

Once again

stop negotiating, and no passing tax increase bills in house

Pass the partial extension <$250K and send to Senate

Get on TV and let voters know you (House Rs) saved voters from a tax increases

Declare on TV Obama crisis over

Beg Obama (show for voters) ON TV to NOT raise taxes on job creators, tell voters you did everything you could do to stop it and why its bad. Voters give Obama credit for raising them even though they are automatic, he cant get out of that.

Let everything else go over the cliff. no restored spending, no stimulus, no nothing

You made your bed Dems. Blame every problem for the next 4 years on those Obama tax increases

” Let everything else go over the cliff. no restored spending, no stimulus, no nothing

Bingo

As Mark Levin said, the Republicans should buy a half hour of tv time and tell their side of the story in a strong and powerful way. But then, we would need some strong and powerful people.
