63% of Americans back Obama’s demand that tax rates go up on the top income brackets. The Republicans are opposing this at great peril to their future.
Boehner just proposed a deal that Obama would have agreed to 2 years ago. Boehner didn’t have the sense to know a gift when it was sitting in front of him.Since then, it has become clear that an overwhelming majority back higher rates on the top bracket. Obama has said he is willing to deal on the cuts, but the GOP waited until today to make any kind of counter offer. They thought Obama would negotiate against himself as he’s done in the past.Let the Republicans own the spending cuts they want.
