Remember, @PRyan original strategy was to use CR/debt ceiling to extract more cuts/entitlement reform. Was brushed aside in favor of defund.
@DrewMTips ...They wanted to replace Defense sequester w/ other cuts. I'm not placing value judgement either way, just explaining politics.

@DavidMDrucker Also, no one believes the Dems would have agreed to increase defense w/out raising BCA caps. Shutdown was irrelevant. -
@DrewMTips We disagree. But your analysis is sound. Good debate.
