Oct 2013

just before Christmas Recess when attention is focused on the Dec. 15, Bicameral Party Report on the Budget and Debt Ceiling. There will probably be some horrors in that report that will have everyone's attention covering over the "Fast Track Authorization Vote" where just the Senate needs to vote on TPP and not include the House.

Hope I'm wrong about this.
