[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you think they will reach an agreement tonight?[/quote]

Around 6 pm, Graham says he has 5 more Dems in favor of the new Feb 8 proposal (which includes some promise re DACA voting - but from what I can tell doesn't lay out a DACA solution). And the CT Dem senator was just on tv very very cautiously saying he's consider it. So looks like they could be up to 56. Don't follow politics much routinely but doesn't his seem like it ends tonight? How hard can it be to get 4 more? [/quote]

So are we going through this again in two weeks? Eff that, no. [/quote]

The thing is many American families CANNOT go 3 weeks without pay if they don't pass a CR. The military is only paid through January 30. They may not care about anyone else but if theybf*ck with the militarybthey will really anger the base. Decent senators do not want people furloughed and going without pay for weeks while this grinds out when they could pass a CR and spend the next 3 weeks coming to some agreement.

Both sides failed to realize that in a shutdown everyone looks bad. Even if we all have really strong political beliefs, when it comes down to it, my party's moral superiority doesn't pay my bills. People need their jobs. [/quote]
