Republicans are pushing Speaker John Boehner to defund Obamacare in any spending bill, but it seems unlikely the speaker may build a House majority on a bill that President Barack Obama could sign.

As Republicans attempt to cobble a legislative strategy in August, the White House will prepare for a fight this fall over the budget and the debt limit.
