actually I do not watch fox news, cnn, or msnbc.
PBS has some good information that can lead to some insights if you understand how to filter.
I do my own research into the things that matter which is how I found the Chicago Tribune poll.
Occasionally you will find facts rather than opinions. At times you will find opinions that reveal what is going on such as the one from the Tribune.
The more the word gets out of how this President picks and chooses who will be allowed to be outside of the law the more the people find it hard to understand his refusal to negotiate. When a regualar guy is faced with being forced into something he does not want yet sees the leader exempting big business and those that make the laws they know where the blame lies for the shutdown.
Ted Cruz did what he was asked by the people that voted him into office to do. Amazing that there are those that will do what they say and not lie like Obama has done.
The Democrats are probably more scared than the establishment Republicans. Of course, there will be many of the same Dems voted back into office by their plantation slaves because they are ignorant and there is not much you can do about a voter that chooses to remain ignorant.
