Harry Reid commends Mitch McConnell’s debt plan
Politico
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid on Wednesday praised Republican Leader Mitch McConnell for putting forth a plan to raise the debt ceiling, calling it a “serious proposal” that he’s continuing to study.
“He spent a great deal of time working on this. I commend him for his thoughtful and unique proposal, something that we have to look at very closely,” Reid, a Nevada Democrat, said on the Senate floor. “I’m heartened by what I read. This is a serious proposal, and I commend the Republican leader for coming forward with it.”

McCain praises McConnell backup debt plan
The Hill
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) praised a backup plan by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell to raise the debt ceiling.
“I strongly support Senator McConnell’s efforts to avoid a default on our nation’s debt, and the last-case emergency proposal he outlined yesterday to ensure that Republicans aren’t unduly blamed for failure to raise the debt ceiling,” McCain said in a statement on Wednesday.

Wild Thing’s comment………
When John McCain and Harry Reid are in your corner it speaks volumes how bad the idea has got to be.
Dear Lord, please save our nation from this McCain jerk.
Yep.
Like I wrote the other day, when you posted the info on the McConnell proposal. The Dems, and of course prominent RINOS, Mc Cain, Snowe and Graham, jumped all over this and are using it in an effort to paint those nasty guys Boehner and Cantor, as being unreasonable.
Leaders(?), like Mc Connell just don’t get it. They need to get outside that, Beltway Thinking cocoon they live in, and take the pulse of the people.
The Republican Party is not being demolished by the Tea Partiers. On the contrary, they are trying to re-establish what the Party stood for before the aforementioned senators and other elites, took over.
With Obama making statements regarding withholding SS Checks and the next day walking out, one has to believe that he is beginning to see the light. He is really not getting any help from the likes of Pelosi and Reid, other than a sound bite here and there. Yet we have McConnel making a concession that need not be made at this time.
Hey Mitch. If you can’t stand the heat, shut up, and get out of the kitchen!
That’s one Major League RINO REAR Admiral, eh? His Cindy has + $105,000,000 in BUDWEISER BUCKS so who the F is McCain to speak for hard working middle class and upper middle class AMERICANS (LEGAL US CITIZENS)of the Un-United States of Entitlements?
What a shame the North Vietnamese released McStain, he’s done nothing but marginalize America since becoming a secret member of the 3rd column.
Sean, I agree so much. he just can’t handle the heat like you said.
Darth, I agree, he is one major league rino.
Eddie, funny isn’t it, even the North Vietnamese did not want him anymore. heh heh
