Democrats Plan Many Votes on Taxes


Congressional Democrats "are embracing the populist agenda President Obama outlined in his State of the Union speech," the Los Angeles Times reports.

"Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada is planning votes all spring and summer in an attempt to end the tax breaks that corporations and wealthy individuals like Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney enjoy."

"Democrats would prefer to frame this election as a choice between the two parties, using these kinds of contrasts, rather than, as Republicans position the campaign, a referendum on Obama's policies."

2. Seems like a good plan ...

... as long as they don't go compromising to get some neutered version passed. If they get something substantial passed great but if they don't - also great. They can draw the kind of clear difference between the parties that Obama was afraid to do before the 2010 elections.
