Senate Democrats say they'll advance a bill giving President Barack
Obama the authority to raise the debt ceiling unless two-thirds of
Congress disapproves, according to a Senate Democratic aide.

"It looks like there is more than enough blame to go around and both parties are being hurt by the shutdown," CNN Polling Director Keating Holland said.
