Federal Employees should brace for a Shutdown in early March

While everyone is celebrating the Fiscal Cliff deal keep in mind not much was agreed to as the major issues were delayed for two months until March 1st.  Spending Cuts and the Debt Ceiling were not resolved.  Boehner who has a weak spine will be replaced as the majority leader in the House by a much tougher person.  Thus I expect a nasty showdown in early March between the House and Obama.  Moody's has fired another shot across the bow by saying they will downgrade the US if nothing significant is resolved by early March.   Thus I don't expect a last minute deal like with the fiscal cliff with a government shutdown likely in early March.  Thus Federal Employees should start preparing for this immediately.
