You are missing the fact, the reality, that Cloture is in effect a vote to fund Obamacare.
These RIONO’s that vote for Cloture will claim they did not vote for Obamacare when in effect they did.
They are a lying pack of scum.
We will never let them forget it!
I'm really not. I'm just anxious to see who on the GOP side votes for cloture.
Assume for the moment that a filibuster is really in play here (and I think it isn't). Assume it is successful. Then the Government closes down due to the filibuster. Just more ammunition for the press to crucify Cruz and the GOP.
But, proceed to a vote and the Dems and the RINOs get to go on the record for voting to close the government down rather than defund Obamacare.
I still see no reason for delay. Vote now. Put the cards on the table. See what the House does in response.
