More Evidence a Government Shutdown Would Hurt the GOP - by @Commentary - http://goo.gl/1ZB2ah
@sdonabedian7 @guypbenson Sending him something to veto helps try & win argument. That will be easier w/ GOP Senate. Right now won't happen

@DavidMDrucker the problem is the GOP doesn't have a clear message. Lawlessness and congressional purse power should be the narrative. -
@sdonabedian7 I agree w/ you that that is the best mssg and it's been overshadowed by other rhetoric. -
@DavidMDrucker Yup. Explaining that a veto over defund solidifies O's unwillingness to follow the law shows that the GOP is hearing public. -
@sdonabedian7 Where we differ is that you need to force the veto to explain it. If you can't get 60 Senate votes pple won't buy that mssg -
@DavidMDrucker where is differ is that the facts back up the message. People are it of work, and polling shows that the action is unpopular. -
@sdonabedian7 You have to get 60 senate votes or the message is useless. But it is right approach rhetorically. -
@DavidMDrucker the approach and messaging I believe are as important than the votes. You have to drive the narrative. The votes will come. -
@sdonabedian7 Don't oversimplify getting six D votes. But main point is only a passed bill forces Obama's hand. He won't feel pressure othws - 4 more replies
