President Obama has made it clear that he opposes any compromise that would extend the Bush-era tax cuts for the wealthy beyond this year. In this situation Obama is using his hand in politics to say who gets what, when they get it, and how they get it. Mr. Obama's opposition to ending these tax cuts open up the door for even more attacks from the Republicans. It has been put to question whether or not Obama still holds enough popularity to prevail through this economic recovery and divisions within his party. However, Obama is hoping to present this issue as a choice between supporting the middle class or breaks to the wealthy. Obama's main goal is to help the economy get better by time election day rolls around. He is doing this by putting his agenda together and finding a window of opportunity to increase his popularity.
