I hadn’t thought about it this way, but I think Kevin Drum is right: Romney’s chances of winning this election depend on the voters’ simply not believing how much downward class warfare he proposes to wage. 

Might work, too.

    Yes. We spent 3.5 years wondering why the bully pulpit was not used to point out the purposeful obstructionism and calculated trashing of the economy.

    I think the voters may be partially right — if Romney wins, we’ll go back to “deficits don’t matter” with a side order of reducing social security benefits in the distant-enough future and cutting medicaid and other programs for poor people who don’t vote for republicans. A tax increase is unlikely.
