Huh?

Via CNN:

BLITZER: You say the president has put forward a plan.

DALEY: Um-hmm.

BLITZER: But the Congressional Budget Office says there is no plan that they can score because it’s just a framework, it’s just a speech. They haven’t seen a document. . .

DALEY: Well, Speaker Boehner knows — and Congressman Cantor knows the plan that they both worked on try to bring the debt down and get past this debt ceiling. He does not have a legislative fix right now to this, because there’s a bill in the House and there’s a bill in the Senate and they will deal with those two bills. He’s endorsed Senator Reid’s bill. He feels very strongly that the bill that the House may pass tonight does not help the economy.

BLITZER: So what you’re saying is the president did present a plan to the speaker, John Boehner.

DALEY: Yes.

BLITZER: But — but he didn’t. . .

DALEY: Right.

BLITZER: — make it public.

DALEY: No, because there’s. . . both the speaker and — and the president had agreed and — that these sort of negotiations do not happen in public. There’s not a plan out there in the public realm, whether it’s the fiscal commission, whether it’s the Gang of Six, whether it’s Congressman Ryan’s plan — Congressman Ryan’s plan lost in the Senate overwhelmingly.

So there’s no plan that’s out there, by any of these people who are saying this, that has any sort of chance of passing both houses and getting signed by the president.
