35. I have this sinking feeling
In the end the dems will cave for a few minor concessions like on the estate tax and the neocons will get nearly everything they wanted. Now they can have it both ways. They can blame Obama and the dems for a bad economy and appease the wealthy generating a huge campaign chest for 2012. I don't think they give a shit about the Presidency-they've already got that. After the dems cave they will be toutung how they fought like hell to keep things that weren't really on the table like earned income credits, which Republicans have always supported. Game, set and match.
