Y’know, if the GOP actually had a candidate that was worth anything, they’d have this in the bag already.
So all political theatre, the GOP house were going to send a bill anyway to extend Bush tax cuts, Obama just wants to try and to steal the limelight and take credit for it.
Obama issued no veto threat on a full extension of the cuts, so there you have it.
Heard some guy on the radio late last evening...Cunningham (don’t remember his first name)...making the statement that there is no excitement for Romney in Ohio, none whatsoever. I don’t know; I could be wrong, but I took that as probably a realistic assessment of Romney and his campaign in the eyes of the electorate - no excitement at all. (Obviously, this could change by the fall.) Could there not have been a worse candidate to run against Obama...worse than McCain, even, IMHO of course.
