As I understand it: To avoid the shutdown, Republicans needed 60 votes. They have 53 senators. Only one Democrat voted with the Republicans. The Democrats had some healthcare related demands that weren't met, so the shutdown went ahead.
I really like Bret Easton Ellis's books, and a lot of them are horror. I'll recommend his newest book, The Shards. Other great ones from him are Less Than Zero and American Psycho.
