For those who have reflexive negativity, casting it off would be an admission that they lost, aint going to happen.

There was a desired and workable outcome from this extraordinary event. Get the road open. With to much of government there is very little desire for a workable outcome. How many who drive that section of I-25 this morning will think how much they needed the government to get the road open, now that the roads open? Now government isn't needed. And that's the major problem. The government solving a problem, means the government is no longer needed for the problem.
