Polls indicate a majority of Americans approve of Obama handling of this crisis. Most Americans blame Republicans for the shutdown. Also approval rating of Republicans is at its lowest point in 20 years. According to Standard and Ford, GDP growth was slowed by 24 billion dollars. Furthermore, public support for Obamacare has improved.

This whole shutdown is a massive disaster for the GOP. They shut the government down for 2.5 weeks put nearly 800,000 people out of work and costed the economy billions in productivity and got absolutely nothing from Obama. So much for being all about putting people back to work. Prior to this stunt, Obama wasn't very popular because of the Syria stuff and the GOP gave him a perfect out. Way to go idiots! Same idiot Republican base who consistently nominates the most unelectable people for Senate races in swing states and are shocked when then lose. Same idiots who constantly said that the polls were skewed and no way Obama would win re-election and were actually surprised when he did win and the polls were right.
Realistically Obama was never ever going to eliminate Obamacare in exchange for funding the government. Get real people. He won re-election running on Obamacare and it isn't going anywhere. Polls are strongly blaming the GOP for this and they are right. Think people really believe that the party of "big government" wants to shut down the government? Please get real. Did the Democrats shut down the Government because President Bush wouldn't repeal his tax cuts? No they didn't because they didn't ask President Bush this because it was unrealistic and silly.
Honest question for anyone. Do you believe the GOP gained any political style points for this shutdown? Does it make it more likely that any players in this situation (Cruz, Ryan, Rubio, etc.) can win the White House in 2016? I say no but at this point they'd probably have to have another shutdown in order to lose the House. House likely stays GOP. Cruz helped himself with the party base but has no chance to win the White House in 2016.
If today is any indicator, all anyone will remember in 6 months is that Cruz was right about The debacle that is O'bamacare .
Hell , they can't even get a website to work right.
The government fails at running just about anything effectively and efficiently. That's what the private sector is for

As Cano already put it, shareholders who invest in a company take the hit when it fails.. (Public) companies are beholden to their investors... In the government, they know they have a forever financial backstop in the American Taxpayer... so who is the Government beholden to ??
I will be impressed if Kathleen Sebelius "steps down" after this debacle. She would be let go if she did this for a public company.

Its funny how cano likes to answer questions for other people...
I get the point of accountability with investors... but arent the citizens that vote like the share holders who make choices based how things are going?
the process is different, the government one is far more twisted and complicated... but to talk in such extreme generalities just seemed weird

When the private sector fails it is the individuals who invested in that endeavor that lose money, not taxpayers.
You should refrain from asking specific questions and just continue with your usual jargon no one understands.
so when the government puts money towards private companies who either fumble the execution or like what happened in the halliburton money laundry scheme...
Then the tax payers dont lose money?
are you serious?
youre saying that when government chooses privatized endeavors like halliburton, that the tax payer does not lose the money?
Is that what you are seriously saying?
that when the government gives money to private companies in endeavors that when they fail the tax payer doesnt lose money?!?!?!?
You should refrain from answering questions that are not directed to you and just continue your quest of trying to make up lies about me...

I personally don't mind that Cano had answered the question .. I was simply acknowledging he had already answered your question, and our thinking was similar .
On a separate matter, You asked ; but arent the citizens that vote like the share holders who make choices based how things are going?
Yes , but unfortunately , we must wait for the next election cycle to force these people due to their poor performance. In this case, Kathleen Sebelius was appointed by O'bama, so she is out in a couple years regardless.
