Could a Deficit Deal Revive Liberalism?

Jonathan Cohn, The New Republic
One of President Obama's more provocative comments from Friday's press conference was an argument he made to fellow liberals:If you are a progressive, you should be concerned about debt and deficit just as much as if you're a conservative. And the reason is because if the only thing we're talking about over the next year, two years, five years, is debt and deficits, then it's very hard to start talking about how do we make investments in community colleges so that our kids are trained, how do we actually rebuild $2 trillion worth of crumbling infrastructure.
