The republicans went for broke and lost out.

Maybe we should have gone for plan B.

Well McConnell was able to avoid a big confrontation which might have cost him the election in 2014.

I want what you are smoking...went for broke??

The GOP came out the gate bent over, white flag with ‘Plan B’. There were NO discussions/debates/talks in the open, it was all behind closed doors, so the leadership could try to ram-rod it down the Houses’ throat. Nobody else had any thoughts on the matter?? Why not take the talks to the People?? Where’s the 3-day waiting before voting at the least?! The world would not end in those 3 days...

This was capitulation, plain and simple. Stop making excuses and sucking up to the losers who want to enslave you and yours.

No, they didn't. The Republicans didn't go for anything. They simply rolled over and took it. They voted on a bill they didn't even read that was drafted by Reid, Pelosi, and whoever it is at the White House that does actual work. They passed a bill loaded with pork barrel spending that actually INCREASES the debt. The Republicans folded before the cards were even dealt. And in the next few weeks, you will see them cave on the debt ceiling as well, just like they did 17 months ago.
