Shutting down the government won’t stop Obamacare but after Obama’s media eats the GOP alive the low ifo voters will turn on us with a vengance. Nancy Pelosi is very happy today.

I've been thinking the same thing.

Yes. We lost it all in the government shutdown of 1995. As Dick Armey has said, within a year of that shutdown conservatism was dead among national Republican politicians.

Before the shutdown we had a conservative House, with the Contract With America, real spending cuts, Don't Ask Don't Tell, Defense of Marriage Act, shifting power to the states...

By 2000 that was all gone and we had Big Government Bush running against I'm A Democrat Too McCain.

We haven't recovered since and in fact things keep sliding to the left, back to where they were before Reagan took office in 1980.

So let’s sell our political souls to go after low-information voters? How has that worked out for us so far??
