Playing "Kick the Can"

Yet for all its gimmicks, this budget leaves the country at decade's end saddled with publicly held debt triple what Obama inherited.
A more cynical budget is hard to imagine. This one ignores the looming debt crisis, shifts all responsibility for serious budget-cutting to the Republicans - for which Democrats are ready with a two-year, full-artillery demagogic assault - and sets Obama up perfectly for reelection in 2012.

I think the POTUS can win no matter what he does because there's no one in the GOP that can beat him, nevermind the fact that if there was, the primary system currently use would prevent that person from winning (unless by change they happened to be from New Hampshire or South Carolina).
