Too bad the past 8 years put us at 1.2 trillion on election day 2008. Bush had a bad habit of passing things, without funding them.

The Senate health reform plan is projected by the CBO (which is independent) to cut the deficit markedly, by trillions over 10-20 years. But we'll have to see what gets into the final plan.
