I dearly hope you are correct. But I thought there was NO WAY Baraq could get re-elected based on $4 gas, 4 years of 8% unemployment, and significant food price inflation.
But he pulled it off, and now they are converting OFA into a congressional campaign for 2014.
The sequester has brought Barry to his knees. It was forced on him by the Tea Party inspired House in 2011 in exchange for agreeing to allow a rise in the debt ceiling.
Boehner knows fully well that he and the Tea Party can inflict sequester II on Barry i.e. another dollar for dollar ten-year reduction in spending equal to any rise in the debt limit.
