<<Neither Obama nor I are saying that extending the tax cuts for the rich is ga ood thing. However had he not extended them all the tax cuts would have expired at the end of December. And I am sure your favored economists would not like that at all.

Maybe he should have thought of that a little sooner and maybe he should have included the 99er's in there.


He did think of it sooner and wanted to get the middle class tax cuts passed before the midterms but two very liberal senators, Murray and Boxer, were afraid it would hurt their campaigns and opposed taking any votes on the subject before the midterms.

And now watch Obama move to the center. And the kids will stay home again.

I will go and vote for him, but the kids won't.


The kids as you put it didn't stay home for the midterms and its not likely they will pass up a vote for Obama in 2012.
