Decomp,

"Reduced spending/taxes is an enormous bullet that's still available."

If only Obama would channel Reagan's tax policies.
Obama shouldn't have extended the Bush tax cuts in Dec.

Of course most republicans have NO recall of his tax hikes. clo

HORSLEY: Reagan famously did cut taxes, sharply, in his first year in office. But as former Senator Alan Simpson, who co-chaired the fiscal commission, was quick to remind Norquist, that's only half the story.

Former Senator ALAN SIMPSON (Republican, Wyoming):

Ronald Reagan raised taxes 11 times in his administration. 
I was here. I was here. I knew him. Better than anybody in this room. He was a dear friend and a total realist as to politics.

clo,

re: No bullets left for him.

Reduced spending/taxes is an enormous bullet that's still available. The only question is, how badly does Obama want to turn the economy around?
