according to congressional historian Norm Ornstein :cool:

"What this debt limit hostage taking and reckless behavior does on the part of not just Mitch McConnell, but every Republican senator, every single one that joins with him, adds an urgency to getting that reconciliation package done," he explained. "This may have a perverse impact if we get this taken to a point where they deal with it in reconciliation."

"So this strategy could mean that the debt ceiling goes from being a legislative hostage to being a legislative engine pushing the reconciliation bill forward," O'Donnell said.

"And if that happens and we get rid of the debt ceiling ridiculous process once and for all and get both of these bills, reconciliation and the bipartisan infrastructure bill, I will take the bottle of wine sitting behind me and raise a glass to Mitch McConnell," Ornstein said.

That is a pleasant thought, and one I had considered a distinct possibility.

What other option is there for Democrats at this point???

The only question now is; how big do they go???

Hmmmm???
