What if you cry wolf, and no one comes?

"That has risks for everyone. The GOP, of course, didn't do so well in the Gingrich-Clinton faceoff, and many Republican leaders obviously fear a repeat, where they get blamed for the president's refusal to compromise. But for Obama, there are risks, too. One is that the government shutdown happens, and nobody cares much -- which has pretty much been the story of the sequester, our last budget bugbear. Faced with a tiny percentage cut in government, most voters yawned, or cheered, or moved on oblivious. Obama's biggest worry should be that if big government shuts down, the same thing will happen."

"government shutdown happens, and nobody cares much -" oh, that would really be bad. All those DC residents would have to find a real job like in the fracking fields or Texas.
