Tax Hike for Middle Class

Didn't the President campaign on a pledge of a tax cut for 95% of all Americans? I'm pretty sure that the Middle Class falls within that 95%. Now the President's people are floating the idea (these types of statements do not happen in a vacuum, nor without the President's consent) of a Middle Class tax hike. Hmmm, and I was called a cynic by some when I expressed disbelief in the President's campaign promise.
