EXCERPT:
RATTNER: “It wasn’t working and part of how you can see that is in the public polling where the tax cuts were hugely unpopular when they were passed and then gradually got more and more popular. They never achieved a plurality or a majority of popularity, but they got more and more popular. And then right about the time as these ads started to turn, they went the other way. There was a Quinnipiac poll, I think 50 percent unpopular, 39 percent popular. So if you think — Republicans think that is their best calling card, they’re in for an awakening.”
