The House is on the verge of caving

In a year what will be remember by non red districts in America?

That a few hundred vets couldn’t visit the WW2 memorial, or that GDP shrunk and the debt ceiling was very close to being breached?

Again, conservatives will vote for tea party folks regardless. But we need the Senate, badly, and had a damn good chance of getting it until 10 days ago.

When the House caves this will be an epic failure.

Sorry to disappooint you. The House will not cave. They cave they die and they know it.

Blunt's argument is that we have should have allowed Obamacare to proceed so that when it created huge problems we could later say "I told you so." That sounds like the approach of a guy who I don't want in charge of anything important.

The idea that you shouldn't fight tooth and nail against a program that you know is going to cause huge problems for millions of people because you will get more political mileage out of standing on the side and watching the train wreck occur is the very epitome of why people don't trust politicians.
