I warned you that Schumer and Reid were licking their chops, hoping Cruz and Lee would stick the GOP's collective head into the shutdown meat grinder.
See why, now?
Really? What did they get. A 3 month extension. So what.
Record low GOP poll numbers.
A fractured Republican caucus.
Conservative candidates distancing themselves from the Ted Cruz.
Loud, preemptive, screams form McCain that the "government will never be shutdown again".
Brilliant strategy, guys.
The GOP already had lousy poll numbers because the leadership sucks, see Mitch mcConnell. The caucus has been fractured since '06. Who are these Conservatives distancing themselves from Cruz? Rand Paul who is running against him in '16? Who cares about McLame. No one listens to him but you. It was way better strategy than Mitt Romney.
Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) took a $2 Billion dollar bribe to destroy the country that our kids and grand kids will be paying for.

They had lousy numbers based on liberals and " independents" in the mix when polling
Those same lefties are listening to him
Wash, rinse and repeat
This is why the republican infighting leads to more liberals being elected. We don't live in a vacuum.

Huh? Who didn't see this coming? Lots of us have been predicting this all along.

Sorry. I apologize for my earlier post right above this one. I guess I need to go get something to eat.

I am truly amazing!
Wrong once again. Almost everybody here has been predicting the Republicans you support would cave. It's what they do.
