I also think he realizes that the Democrats will get some of the things they want. I heard him say that the media may have a different tone about the outlook of our nation. I think we are seeing that already.
P.S. I heard Rangle, from NY, say that the Bush taxs cuts are up for discussion, meaning they may be kept under the right "conditions", I bet the Democratic base won't like that.

Perhaps, Rangle is speaking and planning to use them as a bargaining chip for compromise.
We have the oppurtunity to have true compromise and doing what's best for the country, NOT the party's best interest.... Let's hope we see it.
I'm more optimistic and believing that we are finally on the right track, but it's up to the parties (BOTH OF THEM) to do what is best for the people, we can't have 1 out for just themselves... because the penduluum will swing the opposite way the party that is power hungry wants. IE the Dems get too liberal and make unreasonable demands and refuse to compromise will shift voters right again. The GOP is in the same boat.
Limbaugh is trying hard (and probably will) to downplay compromise that it is all now a popularity contest and the "conservatives" will sell out to be popular.
Perhaps, Rush, but again, I don't think so, I think it's the natural progression of the nation. And if you preach compromise as not what America truly wants, and that hate speak isn't going to sell as well now.... then I believe you won't last the next 2 years.
