Voters don't have an attention span long enough. They pretty much vote based on what happens during the 2 weeks prior to an election.
I'm pretty sure all politicians are well aware of this fact, so this shutdown has nothing to do with 2014 midterms. This is about a few honest folks in Congress trying to do the right thing for the people vs the rest who just want to kiss up to Obama.
Obama is simply too arrogant/lazy/stupid to deal with fixing anything that has anything to do with the economy. He doesn't want to be bothered with trivial things like budgets.
Well, VJ seems to be coming out of the shadows, which is curious within itself. Ken Fisher of Fisher House was on OReilly tonight discussing the handling of the five dead soldiers. When BOR asked him if Hagel called he said,yes and thanked him. Then BOR asked if Obama had called him he responded no, but stated Valerie Jarret had called him.
She’s a typical Reptoid: exotic-looking when young but just flat bizarre in her cups.
Didn’t end well for Hitler or Mussolini.
This was publicized by mid-Sept. search thehill.com. The issues were tied together THEN. In print for publication.
The deal had to have been in the works for months.
I always thought 0bama had a vagina! Throw this B!tch in PRISON along with Hillary, Rice, Lerner, Ingram, Jackson, Sebelius, Napolitano and so on!
Obama’s Lady McBeth
Jarrett played Boehner like a fiddle, knew he would push for the left wing moderate plan and thus end up with not enough votes to pass something to the Senate or place on Obama’s desk. And he played it true to form. Don’t overlook the fact that Reid had to take his orders to play his role or this sham would never have worked. Boehner should just quit the Congress right now, he’s such a tool. For crying out loud, if you telegraph what you are going to do then the other side can take the initiative and we will always be playing on defense. Boehner has truly and totally screwed this entire country. And in the end he was bested by some Communist Hag.
No surprise. There’s always been someone telling obama what to say. And it appears she’s going to win. Boner will cave but the tea party guys will be able to go home and say “We tried.”
She is obama’s Rasputin.
It's "Rush's Theorum" in action and on perfect display.
I don't dispute her Machiavellian influence or her evilness. But what I see is Obama once again being disconnected from his OWN evil deeds. It now appears that we are to believe that everything he does is attributed to VJ, he is weak and lazy, and none of his destructive policies are HIS doing....and a lot of this is now being based on the speculation and words of one author selling a book.
Folks, VALERIE JARRETT IS OBAMA'S LIGHTNING ROD!
One of her functions is to take the heat off her boss when necessary. Events have led to a situation where she has to emerge more and more from the shadows to deflect criticisms away from Obama and to absorb them herself. This is an intentional ploy!
She may be the greatest conniver in the world, but it takes two to tango.....and if anyone thinks she is running the country solo and that Obama is a mere puppet in her hands is dreaming. He is a well-trained marxist with an agenda he doesn't deviate from.
He is also an expert at not being connected personally with anything bad he causes. In fact, as Rush states over and over, he goes out on the campaign trail inveighing against the very problems he, himself, created through bad policies....and promising to fix them.
Barack Obama is the ultimate Teflon president....and Valerie Jarrett is there to see that he remains that way....and she cares naught about any risk to herself in that role.

That’s President Jarrett.
The spirit of Jezebel.
Obama = Jarrets’s meat puppet.
White House insiders giving up the goods on Zero. That’s substantial.
“What I saw at the coup” (Short fiction)

Of course she is!
Is anybody watching or setting up a comments thread for the House hearing (going on now, I believe) about the shutdown of the national parks? Trey Gowdy sent out an FB alert regarding it.
Not much of a “strategy”. Of course Obama would not be blamed for refusing to negotiate...because Jarrett knew the media would have his back every step of the way.
