Obama to detail economic vision

Outside the stimulus, Obama could curry favor with congressional leaders on both sides of the aisle by offering to move quickly on the unfinished spending bills from last year. Bush and the GOP rarely sparred over spending, but the president began vetoing appropriations bills that exceeded his proposed limit after Democrats took control of Congress in 2006. Members of Congress said Bush was stubbornly refusing to negotiate. The White House accused Congress of being reckless in its spending. In the stalemate, most of last year's bills went nowhere.

McConnell said Sunday that the bills - wrapped up in a single omnibus package expected to cost $410 billion - have been vetted by both parties and can pass Congress quickly with Obama's support.

Although some Democrats may be looking for payback, Reid - who could face a tough re-election fight back home in 2010 - suggested Sunday that it's time to move ahead.

"Whatever program we have, let's not talk about the last eight years," Reid said. "Let's talk about the next eight years."
