Shadow Boxing and the Debt Ceiling Crisis

Telegraph: Reports that the US will not fail to pass a debt ceiling raise due to the fact that President Obama by his own authority could raise ceiling independent of Congress. This is true folks, but then the House of Representatives would Impeach Obama and he would lose the 2012 Presidential Election. The Oval needs the Republicans to be on board for any deal, if Obama tries to use the law to break the Congressional deadlock then Obama Agenda would be DEAD on the Hill, Obama would not get a dollar out of them to run the White House, never mind Air Force One. Thus the Republicans should use their power to pass a limited ceiling raise, a six month extension, massive cuts, and then get a second vote in 2012. As they say in Chicago, just win.
