Apparently, an up or down vote is in the works for the House of Representatives as relates to the compromise Obama has announced in three different press conferences. Today was his third press meeting in which he made statements and answered questions as to the tax cut compromise with the GOP.
What is rather historic in this story is the push by House Democrats against a House vote on the subject. In other words, the Left Wing of the Democrat base is trying to block a vote on the matter. This editor is 65 years old and has never seen this kind of anger within the Democrat Party. To even talk about blocking their president and his agenda is most unusual. Obama is running to the middle as fast as he can, to the surprise of everyone including this editor. We predicted that he would not make a deal. We were wrong.
This evening, Obama mentioned those who are fighting him in the House. He knows nothing of dealing with people as a leader of men. Turns out his golden tongue has been his worst enemy. It enabled him to growth up without learning how to lead . . . . . . . . . . . . . and that is what he wanted to do most when he grew up, it seems.
