ever since 2010 the country turned so partisan that everyone will stay in line to support their own side.

at best, they can pick off at least 3-5 democrats who are in red states who is up for re-election nxt year.

I think we're focusing so much on the Senate Dems that we forget that even some Republicans in the Senate/House welcome a shut down if DACA isn't included.

then subtract the GOP Senators that are not seeking re-election which are Flake AZ and Corker TN.

also subtract Murkowski AK, Collins MN, Graham SC, and McCain AZ.

Why the last 4? Because they were replaced by Dems?

those four are the moderates that support relief for Dreamers.

Graham is literally the sponsor for the Dream Act in the Senate.
