ABC News/Washington Post. April 5-8. American adults. ±3.5%. (1/15 results)With those kinds of numbers, it's easy to see why it makes political sense for President Obama to focus on the Buffett Rule, especially given that Mitt Romney is not only opposed to the Buffett Rule but is also the poster child for the unfairness that it seeks to fix.
