How can Cons work with Obama to avoid the Fiscal Cliff, when he IS the Fiscal Cliff?

Massive new healthcare & foodstamp entitlements in the midst of a recession & runaway debt. A ongoing war of cheap fossil fuel energy.

Isn't any compromise with Obama by definition a step toward the Fiscal Cliff?

    I say give Obama what he wants. The election proves that socialism has to run it's course before people get sick of it and realize it for what it is. The same happened in Canada. Now they are more conservative and have a corporate tax set at 7% v our 28% the highest in the world.. Funny thing is, their unemployment rate is at 3.4% whilst ours is somewhere around 8%

    Repubs have already lost this fight. Obama wins either way. Repubs should agree to getting rid of the tax cut for the wealthy or expect to keep losing.
