What no deal actually means

Boehner, Obama talk big deal - Carrie Budoff Brown and David Rogers and Jake Sherman - POLITICO.com: "After weeks of winding negotiations, the White House and GOP leaders are discussing a deal worth more than $3 trillion with changes to entitlements and a promise to do tax reform, according to people familiar with the talks." It means Boehner is telling the Tea Party folk what a victory they will win if they go along. And that Obama understands that. So no deal. But this is the endgame and if the Republican and Democrats cannot put a majority together it will be the biggest political failure ever in the history of Congress. Read between the lines and see if you agree with the analysis.
