The game is how much can be cut and we still get reelected,take the Senate and get rid of zero?

The Dems will decide how much can be cut. They control the WH and the Senate. I figure very little will be cut. Probably the only way to cut spending is to have a continuing resolution for the rest of Obama's term.

Some have suggested smaller debt ceiling bumps with each one surgically cutting the budget. Will the left go along with that?

I don't see how we get meaningful cuts out of these socialists when they still control the Senate and the Presidency,without sacrificing our chances in 2012.
