Republican congressional leaders indicated Saturday afternoon they are close to reaching a deal with President Barack Obama to raise the nation's debt limit and avoid what would be an unprecedented national default.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky, said he had talked to Obama and Vice President Joe Biden this afternoon and was "confident and optimistic" that there will be an "agreement within the very near future."
A national default "is not going to happen," McConnell promised.
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, also expressed optimism that an agreement is near.
