    That explanation seems incomplete. The election we just had showed that voters are not blaming Democrats for the shutdown, if air travel and food stamps are suspended they’d only benefit while Republicans eat all the blame.

    I think the donors are just telling them to wrap it up. They got a win, time to go back to business as usual.
