#Defund plan predicated on voters blaming Reid/Obama when govt shuts down over #Obamacare funding. What does GOP do if (when) they don't?
@TimothyMacNeil What if it makes things worse? Strengthens the prez, strengthens approval of O'care? Just asking, but do outcomes matter?

@DavidMDrucker I understand your point, and the left has enjoyed a better message-machine. The battle will be about messaging. -
@DavidMDrucker The left prides themselves on superior polling...well, it is against them in this case. That is clear. -
@DavidMDrucker As I have said, I fully expect POTUS to veto...even if the Senate supports the defund. He has to explain why he shuts it down -
@TimothyMacNeil The Senate won't pass. I think this would be a better plan if at least Rs had Senate & could force O to veto. -
@DavidMDrucker RE: Senate- I think its a function of power/greed. Those vulnerable D's may be swung 2 save their re-election. Its a fight -
@TimothyMacNeil 1) No they won't. But 2), let's say I'm wrong, there are not enough of the truly vulnerable to get to 60 votes. -
@DavidMDrucker Then if the House holds fast, it's a shutdown. Frankly, the House not budging is no different than the Senate or POTUS not... -
@TimothyMacNeil No, but O'care continues being funded and implemented. - 1 more reply
