Correct your title - "Democrats Shutting Down Government Watch"
Posted on 1/18/18 at 10:43 am to rds dc
I hope it shuts down and -unlike the previous President- this President doesn't do everything possible to purposely make it effect as many people as possible. I hope his response is quite the opposite.
Dems and big-government GOPe'rs would shite themselves at seeing the average American surviving quite well without whatever little bureaucratic fiefdom gets temporarily shuttered.

Current Whip is 36 N with two R crossovers. However, there is 1 D Y.

The threat by the Democrats to shut down the government reminds me of the scene in Blazing Saddles where the sheriff tells the crowd to stop or he'll shoot the . . .

Why would the party of small government cave to the threat of the party of big government when it threatens to shoot itself. Please don't throw me in that briar patch.

Kaine and Warner are "No" after both supported the December CR. There are only 12 undecided Ds at this point and at least 11 are needed to pass the CR.

Take this opportunity to eliminate "non-essential" positions?
My company does not have the luxury of "non-essential" emplpyees.

Bluffing or will they shut it down?
If the Dims were in control they would shut it down because they would control what gets shut down.
So I'll go with no on them shutting her down.

Would be the first time ever for a government shutdown when one party owns the house, senate, and presidency
FTR I don't really give a shite about a shutdown

Ds seem eager to take ownership of this potential shutdown. They either think they now have a stronger negotiating position over the next 30ish hours to force a deal or that the shutdown will be a PR winner.

Update - McCain likely to miss vote. That gives Rs only 50 votes with 3 of those confirmed Ns. CR needs 60 votes.

The Nos have it with 43. Now to see if they actually follow through. Schumer is already squirming by suggesting a very short term CR (3 days) to allow for more time to negotiate.

Senate adjourns for the night and will reconvene tomorrow at 11:00 am.

Shut. It. Down.
