...Norquist maintains that he supports forcing the president to put a plan in writing... Then the way to do that is to get Harry Reid to pass a budget in the Senate, since it is controlled by Democrats.
Any Senate plan is, by definition, Obama's plan.

I'm all for forcing the President to offer up something in writing, not that it would have any real meaning in the end since Obama doesn't play by Honky Rules. But McConnell's proposal should have stayed on the shelf, and frankly, I can't believe that someone in the GOP Senate delegation didn't tell him that. IMO, the GOP should step back from these negotiations, put their heads together, and figure out ways to put Obama on the spot that don't involve caving to him.
