West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin says they’re almost there.

Manchin said that a group of six Democrats and six Republicanshave established a “template” for a deal.

“Well, basically, the template, I think we’re 70, 80 percent there, putting the extra 20, 25 percent to it,” Manchin said on CNN’s “New Day.” “When should the (continuing resolution) come due, when should the debt ceiling come due, and does that give that time for the budget conference, the budget committees to sit down and work through this? So, those are the details that have to be worked out.”
