Hume: Threatening Government Shutdown As A Way Of Forcing Policy "Is A Loser"

BRIT HUME: No, I know. But look, I said this is — government shutdown as a way of forcing policy when you control one House of the legislature is a loser. Now, people like Ted Cruz who Senator Ted Cruz who is one of the main leaders on this issue and certainly one of its principal spokesmen believes that the political conditions are different now from the ones that prevailed in 1995. And in some respects they are. But in one respect they’re different and not in a way that’s helpful to his cause, which is that the Republican Party is in much worse favor with the public than it was in 1995 when people had just installed a new House Republican majority for the first time in decades, and my sense about this is that the sort of axiom in Washington that when the government shuts down, it doesn’t matter who causes it. Republicans get blamed is still in effect. And this is a very risky proposition.

Now, Cruz and company say, you can win the vote, if you win the argument. Well, they’re out trying to win the argument now, and they’re trying to provoke something along the lines of what happened on guns. When a popular sentiment just rose up and next thing you know, no bill passed. What remains to be seen if they can do that. I have real doubts.
