The ground to stand on is the debt ceiling, the republicans can just refuse to bring it up, then the democrats will need to start making the deals. A win, win, if they know how to work it. Don’t raise the debt ceiling and you get automatic cuts.

Sounds good - about like "just send up the funding you approve"...

I think the Rs will give in... again. The marxists will do ANYTHING and we've all just learned that the Rs won't. So while this was a minor battle, it sets up the rest of the war.

I hope i'm wrong.

You are totally right. Too bad I just heard Mitchie the Kid McConnell saying that the Dems will have to agree to mega cuts in order for the GOP to raise the debt ceiling so it looks like they already plan to cave in. Prepare for disappointment.
