@billscher This is interesting, if anecdotal. I proposed what I think is a reasonable deal. Liberals universally reject my hypothetical deal -
@mattklewis if R elite wants D help to stop TParty Rs from blowing '14 they need to pay Ds a price. Mere functioning govt just status quo. -
@mattklewis big strategic blunder of TParty is pointing the political gun to their own head. -
@billscher Don't you think President Obama's legacy will bear much of the blame if this becomes a serious economic problem. -
@mattklewis Actual default hurts O's legacy but w/destruction of R brand. If Ds are dominant party for yrs, O policy legacy remains. - 1 more reply

@mattklewis Does "delay" = "ObamaCare" or "individual mandate"? If the latter, "maybe." If the former, can't see ANY way Dems would take it. -
@RobGeorge Had to squeeze that in 140 characters. Yep -- Individual mandate delay for a year (just like employer mandate.) -
@mattklewis OK, but from D standpoint, what's GOP conceding? Seeing a lot from D's late that they conceded on budget/sequestration#s.
