Collapse In Support For GOTea

The GOTea has shutdown the government and in so doing is shutting down itself. I'm willing to bet this thing is going to have tails in the upcoming elections this year.

Guardian UK: Hopes of shutdown deal rise after Obama meets Senate Republicans - Polls show collapse in support for Republicans that could embolden more moderate GOP senators to seek compromise

A joint poll by NBC and the Wall Street Journal published on Thursday night showed the US public overwhelmingly blames the Republican party for the crisis by a margin of more than 22 percentage points.

Only 24% of those polled continue to have a favourable opinion of the Republican party, the lowest in the history of the NBC/WSJ poll and enough to give control of the House of Representatives back to Democrats in next year's midterm elections.
