Tax cuts will pass despite Democratic uprising, Obama advisor says
Katherine Skiba
"The $858-billion package of tax cuts and jobless benefits that President Obama and Republican leaders crafted will pass Congress without major changes despite a revolt among House Democrats, a top administration advisor said Sunday.
""At the end of the day, no one wants to see taxes go up on 150 million Americans on Jan. 1," senior White House advisor David Axelrod said.
"Some provisions are "odious," Axelrod said, singling out upper-income tax cuts and the estate tax. But that's the nature of compromise, he said, calling the overall deal a "win for the American people.""
