If President Obama can hold firm and not start negotiating with himself, the Rethugs are going to cave on raising the tax rate for the top 2% without a major concession in return. If a bill is passed and signed in the next couple of weeks holding the middle class tax rate where it is, while allowing top rate to return to 39.6% as it was under President Clinton, then a discussion on further revenue sources and adjustments to spending can be started in January, with a more Democratic Congress. It's that simple.
