The Hill: Reports that Republican Speaker of the House John Boehner will call for the sides to come together as " to find some agreement to avoid the so-called fiscal cliff — a combination of tax hikes and spending cuts that are scheduled for 2013. ".
Lets Get Real:
This is why US Presidents on the whole move to foreign policy in their 2nd terms, Republican or Democrat, as the 2nd term goes the Oval might as well be a political dodo, Obama is good for Obama, there is a question if he is good for other Democratic Candidates. The House can just say NO to Obama, its a risk, but they have the power to kill any Obama Agenda before it moves, the OVAL can go on the TV, but half the Country did not vote for him, and they made sure the House was in the hands of the Republicans. By 2014, and its not that far away the Oval might be on the sea bed when it comes to the polls, that is the historical patter, Republicans will be stating that they stopped any Obama Agenda, while Democrats will be running away from the Oval, the Obama support does not seem transferable to other Democratic Candidates. Thus can Obama deal, so far he has shown that he is not that good at it, he is no LBJ or Reagan. If he wants tax hikes he has to agree to welfare cuts, and not just small stuff, the major welfare areas that is sending the US down the road of Greece. That would take political courage, as the Democrats can only promise welfare, thus lets see if the Oval has grown in office.
