I actually thought this shutdown/debt ceiling was a huge waste of political capital.

Really? And if you won't fight against the government taking over one sixth of the economy and the health of all the citizens, What are you saving your political capital for?

Our leaders have been trying to finesse these political hoodlums for five years and they haven't won a battle yet.
If you're waiting for the electorate to rise up and throw the bums out, you should know that the electorate is waiting for to see if anybody is going to stand up and do their constitutional duty.
