I just had 'what I think is' a great idea for the Dems in DC regarding the shutdown


The Dems in DC should get a HUGE countdown clock that shows how long it has been since The Senate sent their passed clean CR over to The House.

Tomorrow (Friday) put the countdown clock on the steps of the Capitol Building - hold a press conference so that the media will see the clock - then have Harry Reid (and Pelosi and tons of other senators and reps) say that they are leaving the clock up until The House holds a up down vote on the The Senate CR and then Reid should say 'now we are going home until The House passes the clean CR'.

Just a thought.
