The timing is about 2 months greater than the average American’s attention / grudge-holding span. Kind of fortuitous for the pols robbing Peter in order to re-distribute to Paul eh?

Fortuitous indeed.... Unfortunately, for the rest of the Nation!

Keep in mind that this is only going to show up in 2014 taxes. Which will be due April 15 2015. That's about as far away from any election of consequence as possible - any off-cycle elections (like those in VA and NJ) are going going to be for the state legislature and lower offices.
