7. But it really IS Shared Sacrifice! Dems win because we brought the deficit down!
So what is tonight's drinking game?

Shared Sacrifice
In the best interest of the American People
Bipartisan Agreement

9. How can the Repubs possibly agree to vote tonight? Rush's talking points aren't until tomorrow.
Maybe they have him on speed dial...

11. They won't.
@chucktodd The holdup on announcing the deal appears to be uncertainty of how House gets to 216.

13. Yeah, thats what I am seeing making the rounds as well.
Boehner doesn't think he can get to 216 with the Defense cuts. I am sure Nancy has her hands full as well with the CBC and Progressive Caucus.

What a circus.
