Is all about the president trying to win re-election here. >> well, let me tell you two reasons why i think the president was right to come out. right again with what he said before, one, we see a slowdown that really emanates from off shore. it emanates from china even, from europe where were afraid that theyll pull us down with them. by coming forward now to say, give the middle income people of our country a tax cut, the president is saying to them, you will be able to have some money to spen...

You stand? >> well, i stand with the president. i think it makes a lot of sense to go straight at the middle class. i recognize that there are people above that who would be very glad to have some further tax cut but theyve already had a great deal more than the middle class. but i think you should understand what this means and i think the public should understand. when they see democrats coming forward, some differing with others, thats the big tent that we need in the congress. if you have wh...
