I rise to continue my vigil in pointing out the lack of leadership of the President in coming forward and offering a balanced budget resolution. I have been in the Chamber noting the days that have passed since the Republicans in the Senate brought to the floor a balanced budget resolution which lay out a chart, a plan in specific detail, of how we would achieve a balanced budget over the next 7 years. Since that time, the President has played coyly with this issue and unfortunately has not come to the table. In fact, he has done a whole lot of things that lead many of us to believe we are not so sure he is ever going to come to the table.

I think he's going to be a disruptive force. And he's going to be a disruptive force at a time when the President feels like there are people in, you know, in and around who have, you know, not had his back and not been fair to him.
Republicans have to start paying attention. This is a red wave year. The polls are not showing it right now.
