Boehner is denying it. I don't see how anything that can get through the Senate can get through the House. Too many nutters.

The centers of both parties. GOP loses 60 votes in the House and gains 30 Democrats. The Democrats lose 20 votes in the Senate and gain 15 Republicans.

The market is not reacting well to this.

I'm really quite surprised, and pleased, at the trigger that's been implemented. Hard to believe the Republicans would allow it, but, hey, good to see.

The market is not reacting well to this.

That has to do with depressing economic numbers from Friday/today, not the deal.

Actually, it started out with a triple digit gain and the Nikkei was up.

The deal could have moderated that. So far today, it doesn't seem to have helped too much.
