Can a Tea Party activist, a mainstream Republican congressman and former Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean find common ground on how to fix Washington? We’ll find out.
More fire and brimstone from Washington this weekend over shutdown and a now-looming debt ceiling crisis. Late last week, word was that House Speaker John Boehner had said he would not let the nation go into default. By Sunday, that guarantee seemed off. And shutdown, unabated. Tea Party Republicans demand the president negotiate. The president says not with the nation held hostage.
Where’s the light here? Up next On Point: our own panel dives in. A Tea Party hardbar. A mainstream Republican. And former Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean. On the crisis in Washington.
