The LINK at the Bottom of This Here Li'l Quote Box said:"Perceived non-cooperation on the budget deficit is one problem for the Republicans in Congress. Seventy-one percent say the GOP is not willing enough to compromise with Obama on the deficit; that even includes 42 percent of Republicans. Fifty-two percent overall also say Obama isn't willing enough to compromise -- still a majority, but a substantially smaller one. (Indeed, 30 percent call Obama "too willing" to make peace; half as many say that about the GOP.)
"It follows that on another measure, the public by a 14-point margin says it's more apt to hold the Republicans than Obama responsible if the budget impasse forces a partial government shutdown. (Then again, three in 10 also say a partial shutdown would be a good thing.)"
I'm finding myself in the company of like-minded strangers.
So far, I'm diggin' the way MY fresh-faced Senator is thinkin'!
The Same Fucking Link as the Quote Box Above said:Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., told the New York Times that sailing may be no smoother in the Senate. (Freshman Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., already announced his plans to vote against the bill.)
"Different members have different goals," Sen. McConnell said. "So this will be an interesting challenge as we go forward."
