The House GOP has in effect rejected a Senate-passed compromise on the payroll tax holiday extension, setting the stage for a possible protracted fight over the next two weeks. Some of the Senate GOPers who helped the Senate bill pass with 89 votes have expressed annoyance at their House counterparts. It looks like Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA) in the latest. Politico reporter Manu Raju tweets:

Sen. Scott Brown on House vote: “It angers me that House Republicans would rather continue playing politics than find solutions.”
