"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Poll: Americans Reject GOP Shutdown Strategy

Submitted by Emmett Harris on Tue, 2013-10-01 10:05
"Americans really aren’t crazy about Obamacare — but hate the Republican approach of closing the government in an effort to repeal it. ... The Quinnipiac University national survey found that the public is split on the Affordable Care Act, with 47 percent opposed to it and 45 percent in favor. But Americans, by a lopsided 72-22 percent margin, say shutting down the government is not the answer."
If shutting down the government -- really shutting down the government -- isn't the answer, then the question wasn't worth asking.
