General Discussion

My party has no obligation to give their votes.

If they wanted to fund the government, nuke the filibuster. We are not in the majority. We have no hard power.

You say "bumper sticker" as though I take the statement we shouldn't govern. That statement sucks. But I don't want my party party to what is happening.

If the GOP wanted their 60 votes, they could have negotiated and dems could've gotten some pork here and there.

If you think we had a tactical victory, I just don't see it. All I see is a continued strategic failure that demonstrates that Democrats are unable to message around winning issues and stick to their values, unless their are running for mayor in NYC or equivalent.

So yeah, no bumper sticker. In fact my bumper sticker would just be "No".
