Shut Down Over Blown. It Probably Helped GOP In 2014. Voters Don't Like Govt. Employees Anyway. [View all]

Voters hate government employees and think they are overpaid. I still hear GOPPERS complain about useless lazy employees who should be contracted out. And they are emboldened because they actually WON many more seats because the last shutdown did not seem to hurt them anyway.

Besides the media and RW hate radio will blame Obama and the Dems and the public will believe them. By 2016 the voters will probably give the GOP even more seats. GOPPERS even hate the fire departments and politics departments except of PR time.

Besides there is nothing wrong if a government employee misses a few pay checks. They make too much anyway.
