Now, some of you, if you have read this far, are saying, “But in 1995, the Republicans got blamed for shutting down the government.” They did. But that’s because Americans detest losers. And Newt Gingrich and Bob Dole threw in the towel instead of fighting. Their will broke. They did not break the President’s will. Of course, the next year the GOP still only lost 9 House seats and actually gained Senate seats. Imagine what would have happened had they broken the President’s will.
This is not a game, or shouldn't be. The sad truth is that it is. Partisans on each side are reducing the entire thing down to a battle of wills. How about solving the problem? Is the rising debt a problem? Solve it!
