RE I don’t think it’s worth delaying the bigger fight a few weeks or months now that we have the momentum going for us right now and the timing seems good.

A shutdown only bribes congress with that Obama care handout that we cant get, to screw us. They are all protected in a shutdown. Lets take that away from them

GOP needs to take the high ground on this low hanging fruit and beat Dems now before the other battles. It will only make it easier.

The complete Defund battle was lost in the Senate.
The House sent the ball there and they dropped it.
If they had won I would have been joyous but they let us down with only those 19 votes

Now we need to wake up from the fantasy and try to beat back libs at this for a change.

I don’t understand. The Senate either defeats the next thing we send them the same way they did the defund effort, or they pass the next thing we send them. And passing an Obamacare bill that changes nothing but the subsidy for Congress and implements the rest of it is a crushing defeat for the American people. Then you have the hopes we can jin up another effort in a couple months to THEN do something substantial? If we can do it then, then let’s do it now instead of potentially having the climate change in a way that makes it harder to do then. You also give Obama and his allies in the media a couple months longer to run all kinds of pro-Obamacare ads and media to sway the public if you wait.
