You know -- we're going to have to raise the debt ceiling before the next election. Count on it.

And I expect the GOP to handle it badly, and I expect Obama to profit from our mistakes, and he will be re-elected.

It's what the political class wants.

My only hope is that the deadline is General Election Day 2012.

Let the bastard try to deal with that timing.

I believe we would already be over the latest limit if Timothy were not playing games already. You don’t hear about it of course. But I assume that he must be.
