[0:00] playing the blame game in Washington. An
[0:03] overtime session of Congress with a
[0:04] government shutdown looming unless
[0:06] Republicans and Democrats can agree on a
[0:09] new budget. We're going to stay here
[0:11] until we can get our work done. Uh once
[0:13] the administration ever gets serious
[0:15] about concluding the negotiations,
[0:18] whether it's uh tonight or Sunday or

[1:11] time when members are anxious to leave
[1:13] town, head home, and campaign for
[1:15] reelection. NBC's Gwen Eiffel is on
[1:17] Capitol Hill tonight. Good evening,

[1:27] conflicts over money, politics, and
[1:29] policy.
