On this issue Schumer made the right call.

And this is true. Shutting down the government upsets all but a few. You DO end up voting for a CR that's the same or similar. This time government employees are furloughed though, so they get hurt. No one's happy, and the Democrats get the blame. Trying to convince a bunch of angry folks that it was the right thing to do when nothing was accomplished is not something anyone wants to do.

And he's right that we need to look forward and build for the next elections. Our only ticket out is to take the House and the Senate. That's the only practical way/

I'm happy to get these observations.
