Let the Dims filibuster. Then tell grandma the Dims are trying to "shut down the government" for partisan reasons.

Let them filibuster away, and let the Repubs say, "You guys lost! Get over it, and stop being crybabies!"

I also like your idea, colorado tanker... turn the press and public against the Dems' sore loser crybaby behavior - tell them that while the Dems are busy with their foot stomping tirade our borders are leaking like sieves and national security is at risk.

Beat them at their own game.

On the eve of war no less! Granny is not going to be happy, and when granny isn't happy, nobody is happy!
