This will be a refreshing change...the Dems holding together while

[Raven]

the Repubs fall apart. I think maybe the days of Republican lock-step might be over.

1. Too bad they're holding together on a piece of crap that is what the GOP wants

[Raven]

3. Boy, you're expecting a lot! :-)

[Armstead]

Not a lot -- Just a little. Like holding together on something that's not a piece of dung

I'm really tired of Democratic discipline only being used to push bad stuff (like the Bush tax-cut extensions) or to kill or avoid good things (like the public option)

[gateley]

13. From my limited viewpoint, Reid's plan isn't that bad for

the time being.

[Armstead]

14. Unfortunately, it prevents any positive initiatives from being pushed

There won't be the money to do anything constructive -- or at least that's what will be said

[gateley]

16. Frankly, at this point, I'm grateful it doesn't touch SS/Med.

I'll take that for starters.

5. +500. Too bad they aren't holding together on Democratic principles. nt

[FreakinDJ]

7. Not at all True - they are calling for Revenue Increases now

take a look at the links I posted to Calif Senators

[Armstead]

8. Unless somethiung has changed while I've been out for a few hours....

then the "unity" is coalescing over the Reid Plan, which even Harry Reid said "is giving the GOP everything they wanted with a pretty pink bow."

[FreakinDJ]

9. check the links - they are calling for Revenue Increases

is it more important to bash DEMs or actually see what is going on

[onyourleft]

15. Is this the plan...

...with the "Super Congress?"

[FreakinDJ]

17. Watch the video - it does not suggest that at all

2. too bad it is the insane extremists against the slightly more sane extremists

and not a moderate in the bunch....(referring to the RETHUGS) :eyes:

[FreakinDJ]

4. A quick look at Senator's websites

6. You forget that the Tea Party and Republicans didn't plan on this.

They were expecting the democrats to cave, to bend to their will and hence, Obama as well. They are out of their element with the dems not capitulating.

10. Refreshing change - sure, if you want a cut in domestic programs of more than $1 trillion

and on SuperCongress, Son of Catfood Commission, to dictate cuts on SS/Med.

Nice to see our fearless leaders "holding together" on that. Very progressive, very Democratic of them.

Go team!

[DFLforever]

11. It's beautiful to behold the implosion.

Their unity and team work has been the GOP's greatest strength.

[spanone]

12. they embraced their enemy and now they own the teaparty
