But it has occurred to me than the folks voting on these bills have supported expenditures that they never would have outside of the shut down.
A bunch of bills voted for by the house now which they would have never supported before, will be very hard to walk back in the future..
Anyone ever heard of the thousand cuts analogy?
Conversely every one which is rebutted by the democrats will need to be walked back by them in the next election. Their comments so far have been wonderfully eloquently foolish. Reid alone will have some serious 'splainin to do. Frankly if we don't take the Senate and the House soon enough this fine Nation will be on the far side of the drain trap and into the Sewer for good.
