Cat To Emerge from Bag? - Josh Marshall

http://talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/2011/07/cat_to_emerge_from_bag.php

A very pessimistic reading of Boehner's hand, and of the situation in general.

I mentioned before that it's not clear whether John Boehner even has the votes for his own plan in the chamber he runs. In other words, will House Republicans even support Boehner's plan, the plan of their nominal leader, let alone anything that would pass the Senate or garner the president's signature?
At that point everyone should be able to see there aren't two sides here to tango, we're listening to the sound of one hand compromising.
