This just shows how out of touch Obama has become from the current budget debate. His budget was defeated 0-97, not receiving a single solitary vote. Maybe he should stop campaigning and trying to sabotage allies and focus on our budgetary mess. Ryan's budget was also defeated 40-57 in the Senate. Not too shocking given the Democrats still run the Senate and they just passed the 2011 budget April 15th, still lots more jockeying for position to come. The Democratic strategy is likely to make the Republicans vote for the Ryan budget as many times as possible, and if they can continue voting on it into 2012, an election year, even better (from the Democrats view).
