Scott, This is possible, but depending on what exactly you are trying to accomplish will determine what amount of cooperation is needed from your SP, or not. You can send two default routes from two different CE locations, but the SP routing protocol will make the best path decision as to which site will receive the internet traffic. Do you not care which site gets the internet traffic and just let it run haphazardly? If so, fire away and see what happens. Do you want regional selectivity? This might "just work" as well with default routing behavior within SP. For example where all east cost PE's find the east cost CE default route as the lowest metric without any special configuration. Do you want load balancing, sending half of your sites to different locations? Or do you want one site primary and the other standby only? Unless you want it haphazard you will likely want to talk with your SP engineer to discuss the routing options.
