“I think Speaker Boehner just gets stronger and more confident. He is the one driving the agenda and going with the short term fix adds to that control.”
IF he gets his plan through and signed, they will be saying that. It’s a tall IF though; Reid is balking as is Obama.
Pass it through the House, call it a day, stand back and watch the Democrats freak out.
I think you're right.
The only thing I don't like is the idea of 6 Pubs and 6 Rats determining the fix for the next increase. I understand the politics of it. I just don't like it.
