Tweet: Obama & Co. can shut us out of the room, but they can't consummate the deal there. While he wants to wrap up formal negotiations by October, he then has to get Congress' okay. This means imploring the same members he's been stiffing to sign America's name (i.e., yours and mine) to the document. How will he get them to do that?
