Under the proposal, Congress would change the rules surrounding the debt limit for the remainder of Obama’s first term.
I believe the McConnell idea is workable and certainly better than deadlock and default -- but Obama should accept it only on condition that it is a permanent change in the law. Only then can it be construed as a step forward for better fiscal management. Otherwise it is exposed as merely a cynical tactic for near term partisan political advantage.
