What's the end game if the House sends the cliff deal back to the Senate and we give NOTHING more?

We Dems won the election!!!

Already, considering we compromised on the $250K (now $400K) line that Obama campaigned on and WON, I see not another inch to give.

So the wacko TP in the House totally ignores the election results and the will of We The People....and proceeds to throw another tantrum because they are not getting their way. They say fuck off to the American electorate.

Eric Cantor has gone on record today saying he does not support the overwhelmingly passed Senate deal to avoid the fiscal cliff.

If they send it back and the Senate says: "Take it or leave it" --- as they should --- any clue how this deadlock could end?
