I thought this fight had gotten as stupid as it could. Apparently not. The Democratic Caucus is saying they will reject Obama's tax compromise.
So taxes will go up and it will be the Democrats' fault. Very clever.
Correction: My bad. Obama has the Republicans. Only Pelosi can stop the compromise from passing; by not allowing it to come to the floor, or by "fast tracking" it to require a two-thirds vote. She would have to emerge from Obama's pocket to do that, and I doubt she knows where the exit (from his pocket) is. So it will probably pass, and Republicans will get credit for it. Still; awesome move by the Democrats.
