Not this time. The people, on both sides, are too pissed off and fed up with the government to allow them to go into stalemate.

I don’t see that at all. Partisan divide, yes. Unified voice saying fix this now, no.
If anything, we are rewarding political bickering.

And, if stalemate happens, then it sets off a series of absolutely mindless and dangerous set of defense cuts and Medicare cuts, and does absolutely nothing else.

Nope. I hate to sound like a teabagger, but one Congress can never limit a future Congress without a Congressional amendment. So that series of absolutely mindless and dangerous defense cuts and Medicare cuts is just an empty promise to be filed with last year’s New Year’s resolutions.
