A return to Bill Clinton is change we can believe in, think again ! ?

Only an insane person would truly think the middle class-only tax bill could return from the dead.

Bill Clinton, at the invitation of Obama, made a push for Obama's tax plan/compromise.

I disagree with Bernie's position, but I thank him for what he did.

Ponder. If all was reversed and Obama was a Republican, how would his base feel and react,

A strong Republican leader

A gamble Republicans were willing to take (because they don't care)

Unemployment benefits were never a priority for Obama

Would anyone totally against this bill please explain a path to getting a middle class only tax cut

How many here have completely given up on President Obama and will NOT vote for him in 2012?
