Resolving the budgetary impass

The House of Representatives, dominated by Republicans, has sent a bill to the Senate which funds the government with the exception of Obamacare. Of course, the Senate, dominated by Democrats, cannot abide this House bill. A reasonable result can be obtained. What should happen is that the Senate should strip out the exception for Obamacare and send its bill to a Conference Committee. In that Committee, both Republicans and Democrats should compromise. Republicans should give up on the idea of defunding Obamacare and Democrats should give up on special deals for special interest groups. That is, there should be no special deals for Congressional staff, certain businesses, and unions. Instead, everyone should be treated the same and that should be the law of the land. If there is a delay in enforcement for certain businesses, then there should be a delay for all, businesses and individuals. This is the middle ground and it is not so hard to find it.
