Probably into the indefinite future, unfortunately.

I'll see an okay tax cut, dirty money that I'll happily take, not that I'm gonna thank anyone for it.

As for the broader public view of the tax cuts, I agree that if people start to notice their taxes going down, that's good news for Republicans. On the other hand, I've heard people's perception of their own taxes are pretty sticky. Big majorities thought their taxes went UP from the Obama stimulus. Not that that's certain to be how it plays out this time. The GOP will market the fuck out of the tax bill.
