Pretty much. It was inevitable that it would come to this. The only surprise is how rapidly it is going once it got started.

Just was at the gym watching CNN and MSNBC. First, this is no where near a done deal. Boehner is meeting with his caucus aka the Capitol Hill Crips at 3 ET to discuss the Senate bill. And MSNBC and CNN trotted out roughly 6 reps........all southern Rs. Not only are they unclear whether they will vote for the Senate bill when it comes to the House floor, they are adamant they will punish Obama one way or another..........the time between now and Jan simply an intermission. I think the days of the GOP acting as a presidential party are coming to an end.

If I were a Dem strategist, I would be hoping that the GOP has its way in Jan/Feb 2014.

We have Cruz to thank for this. If he ever dreamed he would be the Republican nominee, that is pretty much out of the window at this juncture. I suppose you can say that he planned on splitting off the Teahadis because he definitely would be their candidate. But it is painfully obvious he never had a plan. He was just playing by ear, which is why things spun so far out of control.

As is so typical of these radical wingers, Cruz was on CNN blaming the Senate Rs for the way this has come down.......................and naturally he is not responsible at all for this fiasco.

One other interesting item.................a TX newspaper that endorsed Cruz is having some serious buyer's remorse. I think its one of the Dallas papers.
