Democrats think Obama's playing tax-cut extension fight well

Robert Borosage was quoted in an article in the Miami Herald about the debate to extend a Social Security payroll tax cut and unemployment benefits. Reporters David Lightman and Leslie Clark wrote, "progressive Democrats and independent analysts say it's a different chapter: The stakes of the showdown aren't as high and liberals say the administration is showing a strengthened presidential spine.
"`He's made a change in his own strategy after the debt-limit debacle - after making concessions and every time being spit in the face, he's decided enough of that,' said Robert Borosage, co-director of the Campaign for America's Future, a liberal group. "I think he feels he's in a much stronger position to carry this forward."
