Even when they "shut down" the government, it still manages to spend over $1 billion a day. But the Democrats have no actual power to do that since they haven't a majority in either house of Congress.

I believe their tactic would be to simply filibuster everything; don't allow a vote on any item. Like I said earlier in this thread, I don't believe that all the Dems would be on board with this plan for very long. Within a week at least 5 would jump ship and vote for cloture on something, anything.
