The Election Starts Thursday | Talking Points Memo: "There's no point in trying to find a plan for job creation that Republicans will support since they'll oppose any plan the president comes up with. The limitation on the president's plan should be the reality of anti-government turn of public opinion not the prospect of willing cooperation from his Republican foes.
This isn't my thought. It's what they were saying inside the White House after the debt deal/downgrade debacle.
Coming out of the debt deal the strategy inside the White House was to come back in early September proposing a mix of relatively small bore jobs initiatives (payroll tax holiday, etc.) and keep daring the Republicans to pass them until November 2012. On the debt front, drive a hardline with Republicans on the super committee. If they won't consent to any new taxes, let the triggers kick in and take the whole thing to the people on the 2012 ballot."
