Impeachment off, GOP fears it will rally Obama Democrats
Republicans are backing off impeachment threats because they fear it would rally President Obama's Democratic base and kill the GOP's chances to win the Senate, according to congressional insiders and sources.
All the GOP has is fear. Fear of making the media, the president, and the welfare public, angry at them and blame them for not being inclusive and supporting nature that they think they should promote in growing government.
weakness, real or imagined, certainly does not enable leadership.
You nailed it!
