Pete Domenici: “If indeed you intend to have a bipartisan solution, then obviously you have to do some of the things we are talking…”

I think it is very important, for some of you who have gone through lame duck, to make sure that you know it is not the best choice of an arena to which you would assign the solution of major problems.

The two of us have done this budgeting differently because we have done it bipartisanly from the very beginning.

For it to survive, you have to end up putting revenue into the mix.

I want to say to all of you that what we have produced by way of a budget, a plan, should really be taken seriously by all of you.
