The party that is saying "We won't vote to fund the government unless we get X" has historically been the one that gets blamed, versus the party that supports a continuation of then-current spending levels.

The Democrats, in this case.

Email I received today from House Majority PAC, asking for money:
Republicans’ shutdown continues, and Barack and Michelle Obama speak up! This is critical: We’re in the midst of Republicans’ destructive government shutdown. And one of the most powerful and respected Democratic couples in HISTORY have stood up and called on every American to act before it’s too late! The Obamas know what’s at stake – and so do we.

It's a destructive government shutdown. I'm not convinced it's the "Republicans’ destructive government shutdown".

I want the ACA subsidies to be retained as much as anyone else on Obamacare. This is not the way.
