And now, after Republicans went on their #SchumerShutdown rampage and Senate Democrats got essentially the same funding deal McConnell had offered before the shutdown, the polls now show that 39% of people blame Democrats for the shutdown and 38% blame Republicans... when previously that had been 26% Democrats and 46% Republicans.
Remember: it's all about messaging. Here's the message I would have put out:
Democrats want to pass the Dream Act, protect Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, restore net neutrality, and fund CHIP. Republicans would rather shut down the government. #TrumpShutdown
