As we enter another Lame Duck session in Congress it is looking more unlikely that congress will actually agree on a long term deal to avoid falling off the $600 Billion Fiscal Cliff on New Years Day. That is an average tax increase of $3,5000 for 90% of Americans that will take affect if Congress does not act. Speaker of the House John Boehner is saying a large scale Lame Duck deal will not happen, but what is the right thing to do? Should we expect a short term fix? Our Spin Cycle will debate the question during today’s show be sure to tune in.

Steve Kornacki always strikes me as someone with a great depth of knowledge for politics. I wouldn't be surprised to see him switch from the analytics of journalism to the 'strategery' of, say, a campaign. Maybe he can help in Krystal Ball's next campaign?? Hey, you never know. That's no prediction though. (yes I made a crystal ball joke)
