The wimps gave in.
I'm going on record right now saying two things:
One. This vote will never happen.
Two: Nobody should vote for an incumbent next year.
We will see.

what are the arguments for keeping it closed?
Keep it succinct, if you can

this is a poor summary of what has happened, but you know that.
The Dems folded like a wet towel.
Now, the Dem. circular firing squad begins.
Schumer first to be primaried.
I expect these Democrats will be primaried:
Among the defectors were Sens. Angus King, I-Maine, John Fetterman, D-Pa., Catherine Cortez Masto, D-Nev., Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., Maggie Hassan, D-N.H., Jacky Rosen, D-Nev., Tim Kaine, D-Va., and the number two Democrat in the Senate, Dick Durbin, D-Ill.
One member, Rep. Ro Khanna of California, took to X on Sunday night calling for Schumer to be replaced. “Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?” Khanna wrote.
The Democratic circular firing squad begins.
Or, they might use their guillotine.

Senate Democrats cave, open path to reopening government
Several Senate Democrats crossed the aisle despite getting no guaranteed deal on Obamacare subsidies

Fox News senior congressional correspondent Chad Pergram reports on the latest in the government shutdown as the Senate prepares another vote on 'The Big Weekend Show.'
The Senate took a massive step forward on its way to reopening the government on Sunday, with a group of Senate Democrats caving and joining Republicans in their bid to pass a revamped plan to end the shutdown.
Signs that the shutdown, which entered its 40th day, could be ending became more and more clear as the day went on, particularly with the unveiling of a bipartisan package of spending bills that lawmakers hope to attach to a modified bill to reopen the government.
Eight Senate Democrats crossed the aisle to mark the first step in the GOP’s quest to end the shutdown. Many of the lawmakers that splintered from Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., were among those engaged in bipartisan talks over the last several weeks.

REPUBLICANS UNVEIL KEY PIECE OF SHUTDOWN PUZZLE IN BID TO REOPEN GOVERNMENT

"The question was, does the shutdown further the goal of achieving some needed support for the extension of the tax credits? Our judgment was that it will not," King said. "It would not produce that result. And the evidence for that is almost seven weeks of fruitless attempts to make that happen."
Schumer and Senate Democrats long stayed the course that they would only vote to reopen the government in exchange for a solid deal on extending expiring Obamacare subsidies.
But the solution developed over the last several days included nothing of the sort. While there were some wins in the updated continuing resolution (CR), like reversals of some of the firings of furloughed workers undertaken by the Trump administration and guaranteeing back pay for furloughed workers, there was no guaranteed victory in sight on the Obamacare issue.
That means that Senate Democrats effectively caved with little to show for their healthcare push..."

The Democrats played you for a sucker.
Never existed, but you fell for it!
