Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill says if Congress can't come to an agreement to stop going over the so-called, "fiscal cliff"  it will be the Republicans fault for failure to compromise on a tax cut for the wealthy.

McCaskill says it's time to put aside politics because nobody is going to get the deal they want.

McCaskill says she believes a deal can be struck in the Senate, the house is another story.

A package of spending cuts and tax rates must be in place by the end of the year.
