Big deal or mini-deal the President wins either way

Why Obama's pushing for a mega-deal - CNN.com: "So, Mr. President, go for a big deal -- the country needs it -- but in the event that a mini-deal is the best you can get, it is far better than a default. Keep some wiggle room, please." Gergen is probably right. The hypocritical GOP does not really care about anything but beating Obama. This is unpatriotic and suicidal for the Republicans. By proposing a meda-deal and being willing to do it, Obama has made any small deal look merely like a necessity because of the intransigent GOP. The intransigent GOP is therefore the loser.
