Chuck: Deal Possible By Afternoon

Sen. Charles Schumer sees a bipartisan deal shaping up by this afternoon's White House summit, adding a do-nothing shot at Bush and McCain:

"Two days of hearings will now give way to one all-important work session this morning in the Capitol. The idea of a rescue plan has gotten a public airing; now it's time for both sides to roll up their sleeves, get together in a room, and hash this out once and for all. We hope to reach a bipartisan consensus in time for this afternoon’s meeting at the White House, so Senator McCain and President Bush can finally get to work on the job they've neglected thus far: delivering Republican votes."
