Peter King: Government Shutdown a Republican Kamikaze Mission

Republican blames suicide caucus in the party

House Republicans are on a "kamikaze" crusade, led by a "suicide caucus" within the GOP, to extend the shutdown and force a White House showdown over the debt ceiling, Rep. Pete King (R-N.Y.) said Sunday.

"Don't take the dramatic step of shutting down the government unless you have a real strategy, and a chance of working," King said.
