Those 18 republicans will come to a painful end if they vote, I just don't see it happening. :/

Despite the fact that 21, all who have more moderate roots in less conservative districts, have already been pushing for this? I see it happening. We're already all sick of this and it's 4 days in. Those Republicans would get a lot of praise from non-Conservatives.

The thing is, the republican party is becoming more and more tea-party bc of the demand from the people. Conservatives don't have patience for moderates anymore. Unless they govern with principle, they [i]will[/i] be voted out come 2014.
