If Cruz and Lee had their way, the government would still be shut down, ...

Hmmmm... seems to me if you want to be persuasive, hyperbole isn't the way to go.

Actually, if Cruz and Lee had their way, government would be open, and Obamacare would be repealed.

Completely agree, Relic!

OBVIOUSLY, Cruz and Lee, who were supposedly destroying the Republicans' chances of taking the Senate, clearly did not negatively affect the vote, but most likely were part of the reason there was a Republican ROUT on Tuesday.

Finally!  Someone standing up against Obama.  America clearly wants more, not less, of the courage they showed.
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Absolutely right!

Which brings us to today!

Given the FACT that 29 of the Democrat senators who voted for Obamacare are no longer in office I'm not at ALL sure that an Obama veto of any new effort to repeal that would not be overridden by the house and senate!!

Show me a GOP candidate that ran with the government shutdown being one of their main platforms.  I'll wait...

Don't need to, Carling.  The ELECTION is the proof.

There definitely was a government shutdown and the democrats, the media, and a few people here did EVERYTHING they possibly could to pin it on the republicans.

Looks like that effort failed BIG TIME!

The election is "proof" that the American people are sick of Obama.  ObamaCare, and the lies that sold it, played a large role in this tidal wave.  If you think the government shutdown was the reason, all Dat suggest otherwise, and th Tea Party was thumped in GOP primaries.

Ah, but you misquote me, Carling.  I didn't say that the "government shutdown" was the reason we skunked the Dems in the election.  I said that the courage of Republicans like Cruz and Lee were (part of) the reason for the tidal wave.

OBVIOUSLY, people are sick of Obama, but they need and want someone who will actually stand up to him, so elected MORE of same.  (Tim Scott, Ben Sass, Mia Love, etc., etc.)

I'm pretty sure you know that it was actually Obama and Reid who shut the government down, because I'm pretty sure you read more than the MSM to get your news............. right?  ^-^

Personally, I don't think this election was much of an endorsement of the GOP by the electorate.  It WAS a refutation of OPapaDoc, however, so the Republicans had better be seen as attempting to reverse his course  and to restore the American way of life.

Hmmmm..... lemmmeeesssee here....

Does that mean that the voters want "fighters" who will go all the way to the mat?
Even if it means using the one and only Constitutional solution to "stop" an out-of-control president?

Bigun, does it mean that?

At one time yes!

Far to late now!  Even if we started down that road this minute we might cut 6 months off his term.  It simply isn't worth it at this point!
