The Stupid Party [tm] strikes again. These people have no clue about using (or how to acquire) leverage in a negotiation. There's no way "Plan B" would pass the Senate so there is absolutely no harm in the House GOP passing it. But, it might have actually given Boehner a bit of leverage (as opposed to having almost none as is the case now) in negotiating with the White House on the budget/fiscal cliff deal. But no. The GOP doesn't do smart politics, no thanks, don't need any of that over here. Good grief.

A bill did pass 219 to 205 calling for shifting the automatic defense cuts into domestic ones. Pundits and markets continue to underestimate the tea partiers. Cliff is right up their policy alley.
A correction and phone lines jammed with worried voters will bring bout a deal
