WASHINGTON -- In a sign of just how unlikely Congress' deficit-cutting super committee is to succeed, Republicans took the blame game to another level Tuesday, saying the White House wants it to fail.As evidence, they pointed to recent remarks by New York Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer, who said Monday that the committee will fail because Republicans don't want to compromise on raising taxes."It's pretty clear when Chuck Schumer speaks, he's speaking for the most partisan Democratic positions," said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).
