The Senate has caught bipartisan
Long mired in bitter gridlock, two fever.groups of Democratic and Republican lawmakers have hashed out once-unthinkable bipartisan solutions on gun control and rewriting the nation’s immigration laws.But the rush to bipartisanship could grind to an abrupt halt in the House.Speaker John Boehner is once again trapped in a tough position: If he doesn’t move on Senate-passed gun and immigration compromises, the House risks looking like it is obstructing the will of the American people.Should Boehner achieve consensus among Republicans on both issues, it could re-establish him as a deal maker and a central figure in upcoming legislative debates, while helping the House move on to more comfortable political and policy grounds.
now if the republicans really want to show they are changing and serious they won't block this, but afraid last minute frog scorpion syndrome will over come the T-P members and they crack the whip on Beohner.

you know for a guy who has claimed twice now after ther hostage bloking efforts againt the Pres. to have gotten 98% of what he wanted he sure seems to alway be behind the 8 ball, maybe he should aim a little lower and go fo 40%.
