Blue Dog, or fiscally conservative Democrats said they would be happy to work with President Obama, who has called for a return to pay-as-you-go rules, which Democrats pledged to institute when they returned to the majority in 2007 but have sporadically adopted.

"This week alone, President Obama is doing more to address the serious long-term fiscal problems facing our country than former-President Bush and his congressional allies did during his entire eight-year tenure in office,"
said Rep. Charlie Melancon, D-La., Blue Dog co-chairman for communications. "The Blue Dogs will be President Obama's allies in Congress as he moves to re-institute tough budget enforcement mechanisms, such as pay-as-you-go rules, that have the force of law."
