Latest Obama waffle - he may not be repealing Bush's tax cuts after all

How is the economy any worse off than it was when oil was near $150 a barrel, consumers paid on average $4/gallon for gas and Obama was building his campaign with the promise of repealing Bush's tax cuts.

Well now, he's decided that repealing the tax cuts may have to "wait". Which could mean they won't happen.

Now he says he's still planning on pushing through with his middle class tax cuts, which frankly I'll have to see to believe. But why the sudden change? Could it have to do with polling data showing that Obama is seeing conservative Democrats defecting from him to the other side, as this article suggests?

So did he finally figure out that raising taxes (by cancelling the tax cuts) would hurt America and Americans? Naaaaaaaaaah! He's probably just flip flopping and saying that he wont' take away the tax cuts because he figures it'll buy him some votes.
