Shutdown Vote - Still Time - CALL!!!

There's much talk about Dems ending this shutdown.  To me, it seems like the shutdown was all pain and no gain... a pointless Democrat folly.  I've heard just a few people say it was the right thing to do and not as bad as most folks think.  I listened to their thoughts with as open a mind as I could muster and found them unconvincing.  Having Dems do this AFTER the election where so many across the nation enthusiastically voted for Democrats, feels a bit pre-planned.  They had to wait.  They knew voters would be pissed.  They were right.  The shot down our enthusiasm.
