My understanding of McConnell's plan is that no matter what Obama submitted, it would ultimately require a congressional vote. It forces Obama to come up with some actual numbers.
My problem with McConnell's plan is it gives cover to any Republicans who are getting wobbly in the knees.

What I took away from it was, the President would set the ceiling and if congress didn't like it they could vote it down with a 2/3rd's vote. We only have one half of one brance of government. This would give obama the dictatorial powers he has been craving.
Don't let Obama turn into ObeyMe.

It proves the repub’s are not serious. Why are they negotiating with the obama, don’t spending bills originate in the house. Pass the bill send it to the senate and go on vacation. Let Ried piss and moan and crap his pants.
