ROVE group WARNS Republicans that Obama's tax message is working

[kpete]

TPM:

American Crossroads, the big money GOP group founded by Karl Rove, is warning Republicans that President Obama’s new campaign to raise taxes on millionaires is a political winner.
Under the header “Obama’s New Class Warfare May Resonate,” the group’s director, Steven Law, cited their own polling data in a strategy memo to argue that the White House was gaining ground with its proposal to raise taxes on the wealthy.

You'll have to read through the lines of Republi-speak, but here's the key paragraph from the memo itself:

Obama’s New Class Warfare May Resonate

President Obama hasn’t closed the sale with the public on his latest stimulus, but one theme does appear to resonate. It may be the result of larger environmental conditions, or he may be moving the needle himself, but Obama’s “tax the rich” mantra is getting traction: our poll found that 64% favor raising taxes on people with incomes above $200,000.

4. One good thing about this

Republicans have finally shut up about that "will of the people" nonsense they like to peddle. If they cared a tinker's damn about the will of the people, they probably wouldn't be Republicans.

5. "Our poll" - hmmm that means it's really about 96% in favor.
