Neither side wants any ambiguity in their message before the election, thus ruling out the possibility of any immediate changes in tax expenditures or future Social Security pensions. But, for the same reason, I am optimistic that the stalemate will end after the election.
双方在大选前都将保持鲜明的立场，因此，马上实现税收支出和未来社保退休金变化是不可能的。但是，出于同样的理由，我对僵局将在大选后不复存在十分乐观。那时候，不论是共和党还是民主党，都可以接受当前必须拒绝的改革。
