Jeff,
ITs jawboning thats going on now. Fed govt is laying down the law and calling in favors. AF and O'Neill doing all they can. There is a deal in place. We will know about it soon i imagine. Liquidity for the banks in some way, aid to state govts in deficit, tax cut delay(wait to you see bush spin this),massive fed program to retool govt tech,passage of many deadlocked congress bills needed for recovery as well as democrat hot button issues such as prescript drugs. Bipartisan so both parties get something. marv
