If it means losing the next election, who cares! Shut down this out of control government! The American people are behind “defunding” Obamacare, the American people are behind limited government, the American people are behind reining in this government, so what is the problem? Instead of worrying over “who is not going to like me” or “they will blame the republicans for shutting down the government” who cares who the moochers blame, who cars what NBC, ABC, or CNN says about the Republicans, they say it now. Take a stand, get a spine and shut this damn government down until Obamacare is defunded and cast into the pits of hell from whence it came, secure the borders (100%, this is America, there is nothing we can't do, even if it means sending soldiers to the border), end the EPA, hell, there are so many things the conservatives could accomplish if they only had some backbone, a pair of balls, and the will to stand up against these Marxist in the White-house! So they get the feelings hurt, the liberals don't say anything in favor of the Republicans now, so big deal, shut the government down until this government gets back under control by the American people and their representatives, then learns the government only operates at the pleasure of the American people, who can, and will shut it down anytime it gets out of control! Stop pissing on your self's Republicans every time someone says something unfavorable about you! Worry about the American people who elected you to office and this Country's future!

i agree with you except I don’t think shutting it down will result in the defunding of 0bamacare. 0bama simply would die before he let that happen.

Shutting down is what 0bama wants. It takes ALL attention away from the advantage the Rs currently have - takes attention away from 0bamacare, away from Benghazi, away from IRS abuses, away from the economy. It’s what he wants and it’s easy to see why. Plus it would not result in defunding. 0bama will be happy to let America wither while he waits for Rs to cave.

The only thing that will work is repeal. So i think it would be good to vote but not good to shut down over it. Publicize the vote, offer plenty of ways around the shut down and publicize them too. But no shut down.

The danger I perceive in this strategy is that with time, it will be harder to get rid of it. But I don’t think this is quite time to go all in.
