Payroll Tax and the Republican House


The Hill: Report that there are doubts that the agreed deal on the Payroll tax can get through the Republican House. This blog would be very surprised if not enough Republicans and Democrats don’t pass the deal, the deal only lasts for two months, gets them through Christmas, but that is the problem folks. The Republicans want the issue off the table, a longer deal and no tax hikes, the Democrats want it as an issue, also Obama’s class warfare rhetoric is based on playing to the base. Prediction folks, on the whole, it will pass, but it might be close, and it could fail. That’s what makes US politics interesting folks.
