Kicking the can down the road may not be all bad

We may go through this again next year but if the GOP wants to pull something like this again during an election year they could be pounding the last few nails in their coffin. We are far enough away from next years elections people may start to forget about this fiasco but if the GOP tries it again closer to the election they WILL lose control of congress! Mark my words.

Even if they kick up a fuss it'll remind voters of the shutdown. I think they're walking into another trap.

If Pres Obama pushes immigration and it doesn't pass which it wont that will be another nail in the coffin.
