Chris Cillizza - Liberals are losers in this deal, Tea Party winners

Advertisements [?]

Losers:

Liberals: As the basic framework of the deal emerged, liberals began voicing their discontent about a bargain that left their side wanting more. With no revenue in the initial phase of the legislation and Medicare cuts on the table in the second phase, there’s not much for the ideological left to celebrate.

Winners:

The tea party: inside and outside Congress — will almost certainly be emboldened by the result of this fight.

As a progressive, I am furious.
