Sen. Joe Lieberman Tells Reporters – No Deal Tonight

Senator Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) told reporters this afternoon that he did not see a deal tonight in the fiscal talks.
The Washington Post reported:

Asked as he exited a meeting of the Senate Democratic caucus whether a deal would be struck today, Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman (I-Conn.) replied: “No, I’d be shocked. I think the parties are much farther apart than I hoped they’d be by now, and that the country thought they’d be when negotiations started on Friday.”
