Not all republicans are stupid. Not all conservatives are stupid. Not all tea party members are...well, um--anyways, yeah. A CNBC poll finds that only 19% of Americans support shutting down the government to defund Obamacare. Check this:
When asked about defunding Obamacare if it includes a government shutdown and defaulting, 59 percent of those polled opposed cutting funds to the president’s signature health law, while 19 percent supported it, according to a CNBC All-America Economic Survey conducted by Hart-McInturff out Monday.
Without the possibility of a shutdown, Americans are still against defunding Obamacare generally, 44 percent to 38 percent, the poll found.
While a majority of Republicans who identify with the tea party support defunding Obamacare even if it means a shutdown, by 54 percent, Republicans who do not identify with the tea party oppose doing so, 48 percent to 36 percent.

Now, I'm not one to judge but what in the world are these tea party loons thinking?
