Senate reaches deal: The Senate is voting now on a bipartisan deal to fund the government through January 30 in a major sign the shutdown is poised to end, according to two people familiar with the discussions. A critical group of at least eight Senate Democratic centrists agreed to vote for the measure in exchange for a future vote on extending enhanced Affordable Care subsidies, according to two people familiar with the discussions even as the rest of their party has openly pilloried the deal.
I'd venture to say that said Democrat centrists are breathing a sigh of relief over Republicans having upped said centrists' chances of re-election.
If what I've been reading at Twitter is any indication, the opposite is true. Democrat base is livid
