iRepublicans back down and allow the country to survive default. Democrats win!

The budget is about to go back to 2008 levels and Obama's promises on immigration, climate changes, etc are dead.

Wait til the 2008 budget level is the NEW baseline, then see who thinks they won and lost ...

Well, I’ll wait but without expectations. The Democrats will not let the budget go back to 2008 and I doubt that even the Republicans (RINOS) will allow that either. Good plan though but probably not realistic. Actually not sure where that comes from because the only thing I’ve heard about that is whether the sequester is extended or overturned. Not sure where the 2008 levels come from.

Not sure where you're getting your information, but in any case, simply refusing to budge guarantees year 2000 levels of spending, because that is how much revenue is coming in every month, without borrowing another thin dime.

It's an automatic balanced budget mechanism.
