1. We'll see how the teabaggers vote, but I saw a story that all Democrats are voting against Boehner's
plan. It will be interesting to see if he can get half of the teabaggers to vote with him which I think is about what he needs for it to pass with no Democratic votes.

"A strong contingent of House Republican tea party-supported freshmen expressed their support for House Speaker John Boehner’s plan to increase the debt limit today, explaining that the plan is the best available option in order to avoid defaulting on the country’s debt obligations ahead of the Treasury Department’s fast-approaching deadline next week."
