So how might this issue come to a resolution? The bill in the house is dead, even if it passes the house. The bill in the senate won't pass the house, because it moves the deadline for another one of these meetings of the zoological society to 2013...the only way anything is going to pass is if it's

a) a clean extension of the debt ceiling, which will only pass with dem votes
b) a blended bill containing some of reid's and boehner provisions, which will only pass with dem votes too...
c) a default, with obama likely to invoke the 14th to save the day

I think the teapers get frozen out in all three...which is what the country needs at the moment (politically that is)...


Either the House/Senate come up with a compromise bill that can pass both houses.....which does not look likely, or Obama steps in and invokes the 14th. As one of the few adults in DC, I don't think Obama will let the US default.
