Fox News: In something akin to a political ping pong match, Democrats and Republicans spent Thursday alternately declaring they had - or hadn't - reached a deal on funding the federal government through the current fiscal year.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., repeated Vice President Joe Biden's assertion that the two sides had at least agreed to a number, if not yet the details about what may be cut and what won't. House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, quickly shot down Reid's statement, adamantly denying there was any deal at all.
