Again, the specter of a shutdown haunts the halls of Congress
Washington (CNN) - Hovering above Congress with the unpleasant scent of deja vu are concerns that current budget talks seem poised to fail and that the word "shutdown" is back on the rise.
First, there's the apparent budget impasse.

Mark my words: the GOP/Teatrolls think the website and "keep your plan" issues have caused such a massive turnaround that they will "win" if they shut down the gov't this next time around by holding the continuing resolution hostage and demanding ransom in the form of massive changes to the ACA that will completely undermine its implementation and functionality, particularly the cost control mechanisms.
Please proceed, GOPers/Teatrolls...DARE YA.
Give the Democrats and Obama everything they want!! They seem very adept at hanging themselves with everything they do. STOP trying to help save them Republicans!! Get out of their way and let them prove to the country once and for all what a bunch of lying incompetents they truly are. Yes, it is tough love for many American who will bear the pain of Democrat incompetence but it is necessary to prevent more and larger Democrat disasters in the future.
Republicans should insist that Obamacare be implemented IN FULL and AS SIGNED INTO LAW. Outlaw all exemptions and waivers that Obama has granted. No more delays for political reasons. The country needs to see the full and true face of this Obamacare nightmare before the next election. Short term pain, long term gain.
My family just signed up with Obamacare and our plan is fabulous! A ton better than the decade of being ripped off by blue cross! Chill out tea bagging repubs and stop spreading endless lies.
Wow – the Tea Trolls had people running scared for a bit there with the anti-ACA stuff. Now they are going to actually make sure voters remember the Cruz disaster. For the sake of the liberal future I would like them to go for it, block progress, and tell the voters every little thought that comes into their head. You cannot buy political advertising like that.
@never vote republican,
"My family just signed up with Obamacare and our plan is fabulous!"
And the media won't tell your story coz good news doesn't generate clicks.
@Sniffit
never vote said ""My family just signed up with Obamacare and our plan is fabulous!""
Come on, dude. Let's hear it.

Now if you claimed you knew a guy that heard a guy who might have read some new made up dirt on Benghazi and birth certificates, THAT would be a headline. Good news does not sell, and it kinda ticks off the TeaParty.
"And the media won't tell your story coz good news doesn't generate clicks."
But it does generate threats from large conservative PACs and activist groups with advertising money that they will boycott paying for advertising on CNN.

LOL, oh they will and they will win!!! Have you been paying attention sniffy, the MAJORITY of Americans do not want the ACA! I know it is really hard for you to accept that but it is a FACT!!! When EVERY poll in the entire country proves this fact I think you just need to accept it. I can understand not take too much stock in one or 2 or even 3 different polls but when everyone, I repeat every poll shows American don't want it, it is know a FACT!
will never vote Republician again
