This would be political suicide. I think Democrats realize this, unless they are insane, which they could be.

If they raise taxes, we win the House back in two years. It's that simple.

It still takes 60 votes to overcome a filibuster. That and but one senator.

If tax increases pass, it will be the will of both parties.

The far left socialists own the democrat party. They'll do as they're told. It's not their choice. They want military surrender, open and unfettered abortion, infant experimentation, UN judicial control, and homo elitism.
The democrats will be forced to oppress the majority with Marxist laws.

The lower section, the welfare slugs, are demanding tax payers pay their health insurance premiums, offer free Internet access, and buy them free gas via gas stamps.

The democrats HAVE to oppress and tax. The base won't tolerate "moderate-ism."

oh Bs...if they sell it as the "RICH" just paying their fair share, the masses love it...

or, they will hide it in any number of new fees or surcharges or heck, just increase the SS taxes on the workers and nobody will even care...especially not all those millions recieving it..

I remember them passing a huge tax increase in 92 and the child molester Mel Reynolds high fiving one of his SOCIALIST DONKEYCRAT Komrades when it passed.

Good afternoon.
"This would be political suicide."

I've seen that argument put forth several times since November 7.

We can only hope those who think the DemocRATs will use common sense are right, but I don't have much faith in that being the case.
