A just released cbs news poll shows 44 blame republicans. 33 blame president obama and the democrats, and 17 blame both. Susan mcginnis is in washington and has the latest. Susan, good morning. Annemarie, good morning. This was the first meeting between the president and leaders in Congress Since this shutdown began, and it pretty much ended with them coming out and reiterating they havent budged from their positions. Theyll slug it out again today while the federal workers sit at home with no paycheck bearing the brunt of this stalemate. Congression alg leaders left the white house once again blaming each other for this Government Shutdown. Were three playing these games. Republicans are standing their ground, saying any new budget agreement must include changes to the Affordable Care act. All were asking for here is a discussion and fairness for the American People under obama care. Democrats say theyll negotiate but only after the house passes a temporary budget with no strings attached. President obama believes there are enough votes for it to pass. The only thing thats stopping it is john boehner right now has not been willing to say no to a faction of the Republican Party that arealing to burn the house down because of an obsession over my health care initiative. With neither side showing any sign of giving in, the estimated 800,000 federal employees now furloughed are bracing for what could be an extended period without pay. My honeydo list guests longer.

Now, we are seeing more signs that a deal to fund the government is going to be partnered with an agreement to raise the nations borrowing capacity. The United States reaches its department limit on october 17th, and that could mean this budget showdown, Government Shutdown could last until then. Thank you, susan.

A storm system brewing in the gulf of mexico has the potential to hit the northern gulf coast with heavy rain and gail force winds. Cbs news weather consultant David Bernard has the details. Were keeping an eye on the strong disturbance, and right now its located right on the tip of the yucatan peninsula. We have quite a bit of thunderstorm activity developing around this low, but as of yet, not developing into a tropical storm. But that could happen any time within the next six to 12 hours. Now, the current thinking is that this is going to move north through the gulf of mexico throughout the day today, friday, and into saturday, and then make landfall somewhere along the northern gulf coast. The biggest threat whether this develops or not is going to be the potential for heavy rainfall and right now we could see excessive rains that could cause flooding anywhere from Southeast Louisiana to as far east as portions of the Florida Panhandle around pensacola. And, again, that would be generally over the next 48 hours or so. Im David Bernard, cbs news, miami.
