Harry Reid on WH Summit: Bush plan 'deeply flawed', Congress 'already incorporating Obama's 'vision'
Edited on Wed Sep-24-08 10:13 PM by bigtree
Reid's statement:

"We have accepted the President’s offer to meet tomorrow. At that time we will discuss the progress we have made to improve the Administration’s deeply flawed plan to address this unprecedented crisis. We have heard Senator Obama’s vision for enhancing this plan, and have already incorporated some of those ideas. I hope to hear President Bush and Senator McCain’s plans for helping homeowners and middle-class Americans, and for gaining the support of the rank-and-file Republicans necessary to get this done. As I have said throughout, tomorrow’s meeting and future deliberations must be focused on solutions, not photo ops."

2. It's almost like Obama is already President.
Maybe we'll get things done quickly.

6. That's how Congress should treat him - like he's already won and in the oval office.
Not only does this unify democrats but it also serves to marginalize the current administration as well as the rest of the GOP.
