The budget continues to be on people?s minds as the battle over the debt ceiling heats up, and Fox has each party?s second-in-command in the Senate ? Senator Jon Kyl, Republican of Arizona and minority whip, and Senator Richard J. Durbin, Democrat of Illinois and majority whip ? on hand to weigh in on the debate.
