The Liberals/Democrats are itching for it. Sen. Chuck Schumer is salivating for it. They figure if they can get the government shut down, the populace will blame it on the Republicans, because with their mainstream media allies they can hammer that talking point home hour after hour until it's pounded in the brain of ever non-thinking American.

Why negotiate with Republicans when you can just let the government shut down, and then with "chaos" in full swing the Republicans will cave in and give you everything you want and you can show Rep. Paul Ryan your backsides.

That is the budget plan of the Democrats. Will it work? We shall see.
