don't understand the Pres. reaching out to a right wing ghost. maybe he's thinking that since the right has played Mitt verses the volcano with 'ol boy he might be willing to give a hand with the rich elites, if so not a bad idea, that's why he gets the big bucks and hits and racially chastised by the right.
Governor Romney will have a private lunch at the White House with PresidentObama in the private dining room. It will be the first opportunity they have had to visit since the election.This comes amid a day filled with meetings with party leaders in order to avoid the “fiscal cliff.” Obama was fulfilling a promise made earlier this month to extend an offer for the former Massachusetts governor to meet with him at the White House. The two men have not met in person since the last Presidential debate before the election.
The invitation may surprise some, but it is normal for the president, who has regularly attempted to work across the aisle, only to find himself rebuffed. The invitation to the White House is demonstrating that a promise made is a promise kept by President Obama. This bodes poorly for the efforts to force the fiscal cliff as an issue, as the president has promised to not allow the tax cuts for the wealthy to continue. The results of this meeting, should Mr. Romney and President Obama create a strategy to overcome the congressional impasse, might show the former Governor as an established leader in the Republican Party. If so, he might be the only leader of the Republican Party who actually has any wish to actually get work done.rope a dope?
