Breaking on CNN: Dems Stay Defiant on Health Care Demands As Shutdown Looms

[senseandsensibility]

That's CNN's "take" for what it's worth. Just posting as a contrast to other reports I've seen about Dems "caving."

1. When's the "drop dead" date/time?

[Maru Kitteh]

2. They absolutely must.

[Prairie Gates]

3. If Dems fold here, the entire party will collapse

And Trump knows it.

Gut check time for all Dems. Hold the line or surrender everything.

4. Yes, We The People will not be very inspired to back a party of poodles, all bark, no bite

lets hope they bite some fascist ass and stand their ground like our lives depend on it which it does.

[BigmanPigman]

5. ALL Dems should be out there telling the truth

We must be more vocal in our messaging!!!

[MarineCombatEngineer]

6. Why that can't be,

I just read, right here on DU, that Schumer and Jeffries were going to cave, with the word cave being capitalized.
