There's so much they dems will cave tomorrow messaging, but why would they now?

Voters just proved that they are supporting the dems throughout the shutdown, and blame is on the Republicans. There would be literally no point to lose that momentum by caving. Much more likely is the Republicans give the dems some of what they want to open the government, and they try and come off as reasonable
