"I still expect that the GOP will wimp out again"
-I actually think the more Obama talks the more insulted the Republicans will be which will actually transform them into not wimping out. I also am seeing signs that it looks like the longer this debate about not cutting spending the more democrats look bad to the public. Republicans should stretch out this debate as long as they can because the longer it goes on the more the Democrats look bad to the public. We are looking at an Obama miscalculation. Why? because the mandate that people gave Obama the reason why the voted for him was to protect social issues NOT be fiscally liberal. The vast majority of Democrats are actually fiscally liberal.

I meant the vast majority of Democrats are actually fiscally CONSERVATIVE.

Right now what the Republicans should do is vote to continue current tax rates through 2013. Then either the Democratic Senate will vote against it or the President will veto it. Then one the first paycheck in 2013 when everyone's taxes goes up the Republicans should say "we tried to stop, but the Democrats raised your taxes."
What they will do is surrender in late December.
Nuts!
