James Capretta asked about the Dems' response to Paul Ryan's budget. Ezra Klein says a plan is in the works:
Democrats have been very reluctant to let the Bush tax cuts expire for anyone but the very rich, and they’ve had trouble communicating the cost savings in the health-care law, much less expanding them. So it’ll be interesting to see where [Rep. Chris Van Hollen, ranking member on the House Budget Committee,] and the Democrats go with this. [Rep. Paul] Ryan has really raised the standard for policy ambition, and it’ll be hard to get much attention for a budget that doesn’t follow his lead on that.
For which much thanks.
