Senator Scott Brown (R-MA) will be sworn in today, three weeks after a surprising win by the virtual unknown in the special election for the Massachusetts seat previously held by Ted Kennedy. In the interim period he has been assembling a staff and Congressional officials have been dealing with his request to park his truck in the Rotunda.
The House will vote today on a measure to raise the cap on federal borrowing up to $14.3 trillion. They would have voted sooner but it took weeks to read the summary, which was written in whale's blood on $50 bills.
And finally, President Obama visited with the Senate Democratic Caucus yesterday for a televised question and answer session. Senators plan on reviewing the tape today to find out what they said and heard.
FRIDAY: Flip clop.
