A political war is coming over the Bush tax cuts, and the first real battle was fought in the Senate on Wednesday. Todd Zwillich, Washington correspondent for The Takeaway, discusses yesterday's vote and next week's action in the House.
"Nobody should take away from this that their taxes are going to change in the short term. The House next week will vote on that same Republican measure... extending all of the Bush tax cuts," Zwillich said. "There are major political implications for this, however."
