Senate Democrats Divided on Taxes Put the Issue Off Until After Election Day

by Trish Turner | September 23, 2010

Senate Democrats huddled behind closed doors for one hour on Thursday trying to figure out what to do about the expiring Bush tax cuts. With no consensus emerging, Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., decided to postpone a vote until after the election.

"Democrats believe we must permanently extend tax cuts for the middle-class before they expire at the end of the year, and we will.," Reid spkesman Jim Manley said in a written statement that blamed the GOP for the delay. "Democrats will not allow families in Nevada and across the country to suffer or be held hostage by Republicans who would rather give tax giveaways to millionaires and corporations that ship jobs overseas. We will come back in November and stay in session as long as it takes to get this done."

He is completely predictable, he can't buy enough votes as too many Dems want to keep the BUSH tax cuts for everyone so he is putting off the vote instead of chancing a lose that shows he has no control over his minions. :roll:
