CONTENT:

House Speaker John Boehner led 20 Republican leaders to a presidential meeting on Thursday with a short-term debt ceiling proposal that some observers are seeing as huge climb-down, but the White House said no agreement was reached.

Boehner emerged 90 minutes after the meeting began, without making any statements to the press assembled on the White House driveway.

The arrangement Republicans pitched would have required President Barack Obama to negotiate on spending cuts before the federal government could reopen, but it would immediately raise the nation's debt limit without any strings attached.

But while the White House said in a statement that it hosted a 'good meeting' with Republicans, the two sides remain at loggerheads.
