Mid-Day Shutdown Notes

You may want to point out that the same model degradation occurs with weather/atmospheric models. I've worked on satellite cal/vals and each satellite has it's quirks.... Earlier today, I mentioned a "This will never work" analysis by a political scientist, Sarah Binder. "You're underestimating the political power of the discharge. Once the necessary votes are in to sign the discharge the endgame is in sight. It would be politically impossible for Boehner to say that he's going to keep the government shutdown until a vote in late Nov for the discharge. Once the discharge and vote for a clean CR becomes inevitable, regardless of how far into the future that actual vote will take place, it will be politically impossible for Boehner to maintain his position."
