The Dims have painted themselves into a corner. They can't win back any of the votes they lost if they insist on continuing on "obstruction",and if they don't they will lose the $$$ backers.

$$$ backers

The use of money in politics is for getting votes.

If you offer a politican a choice of 20 million dollars or a million votes, he will turn down the money and take the votes.

That is the beauty of our system of government. A significant group of united voters always has more power than a few people with big bucks.
