pressure on nancy pelosi to saying maybe we should extend them all. the democrats could mishandle this. so could the republicans. >> raising taxes before an election, the prospect gives every republican an opportunity to beat the daylights out of pelosi and any democrat that supports her. >> these 31 democrats and we talked to one of them yesterday. congressmen have basically tied nancy pelosi's hands, right? if it indicates it's not going to pass wouts extending it to everyone, at the end of the day, the democrats are going to be blamed. >> i think the chances of getting done before the elections are diminishing. and part because as gloria borger reported yesterday on cnn, there's no majority for any plan right now in congress. whether it's, you know, there are five or six variations of this tax plan. and there's no single one of those variations has majority support. this could well go over, be pushed over till after the elections.
