Mitch McConnell today floated an idea to solve the debt ceiling problem that would essentially raise the ceiling without any real reforms or cuts.
So far, among Presidential candidates, Newt has come out strongest against it, tweeeting soon after the proposal was released: "McConnell's plan is an irresponsible surrender to big government, big deficits and continued overspending. I oppose it." Following up on that, he wrote, "The answer to Obama's irresponsibility is a principled "no," not a blank check.
Other candidates have either been silent or muted in their response.
