Might have been a smart political move for Obama to say a deal is “within sight”, even if that’s not totally true. Makes the House GOP look even more obstructionist, as they’ve been the main impediment to compromise all along.

Not surprising that Boehner can’t (or won’t) hold a vote. If Plan B failed (at 1 million), why would House Repubs go along with a deal at 400-450k?

Next question is whether House GOP is so extreme it will vote against tax cuts for 98% of Americans since the 2% of Americans they really care about won’t be getting a cut.
