\n

Let\u2019s start by tempering expectations. There is no deal or breakthrough to end the government shutdown. Certainly no bipartisan pact on ObamaCare subsidies.<\/p>\n

But the wheels are definitely turning for the first time in more than a month on Capitol Hill toward ending the government shutdown.<\/p>\n

Senate Republicans<\/a> are working with some Democrats on amending the House-passed Band-Aid spending bill to fund the government. The new date would likely renew all funding through late January. But that is part of the negotiation right now.<\/p>\n

This would be a straight spending bill with nothing on healthcare or add-ons.<\/p>\n

OVER ONE MONTH INTO GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN AND NO END IN SIGHT \u2013 BUT PREDICTIONS RUN RAMPANT<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

With the vote matrix on the previous 14 test votes, Republicans would need an additional 5 senators who caucus with the Democrats to vote yes to break a filibuster and hit 60 votes. This could come Thursday or later this week.<\/p>\n

However, what is the parliamentary elixir which prompts a group of Democrats to vote yes?<\/p>\n

A date certain on when they\u2019d deal with ObamaCare subsidies? An agreement on the unfinished spending bills?<\/p>\n

That\u2019s the key. And only that will unlock this Rubik\u2019s Cube of a shutdown.<\/p>\n

If the Senate approves it, this would then go back to the House. The House could potentially vote for the first time since September 19.<\/p>\n

Presumably, the House would then align with the Senate.<\/p>\n

That could happen this weekend.<\/p>\n

SHUTDOWN SEEN FROM THE PULPIT: INCHING ALONG ON A WING AND A PRAYER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Fox is told it\u2019s possible some House Democrats could vote yes \u2013 going against the hardline wishes of the Democratic leadership<\/a>. Especially if there is nothing in ironclad legislation as House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., is asking for.<\/p>\n

In short, some Senate Democrats could in fact tick off House liberals. That is exactly what happened with the shutdown question in March.<\/p>\n

Moreover, Democrats could walk away with the potential of very little to show \u2013 despite their holdout on the shutdown.<\/p>\n

I cannot begin to underscore the level of skittishness among many Democrats \u2013 especially moderates \u2013 and some Republicans about the shutdown.<\/p>\n

There is grave concern about SNAP benefits, aviation safety, damage to the economy<\/a>, workers off the job, people going without paychecks.<\/p>\n

Pick your poison.<\/p>\n

Today marked the first true time since the shutdown began that the legislative wheels began to move \u2013 in 35 days.<\/p>\n

But no one is quite sure how to unlock this shutdown box \u2013 barring a crisis.<\/p>\n

It’s about the math. Always. And they might not have the right combination yet to solve the riddle.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
