After defending his anti-tax pledge to Soledad OBrien on CNN this morning, Grover Norquist turned to Fox News this afternoon to continue the damage control.
Pressed by Neil Cavuto to explain why Republican leadership seems to be indicating they are open to some tax increases to reach a deal to resolve the fiscal cliff, Norquist returned to his line that GOP legislators have a had some impure thoughts over the last few days but have not actually voted to raise taxes yet.
Over the course of the interview, Cavuto described Norquist as both a unique, powerful Wizard of Oz figure who has been able to keep Republicans in lock step with your way of thinking and as a Tony Soprano-like mob boss who will remember these guys who turn on you. -snip-
