Will 2/3 of the Senate vote to convict? Not a chance. So it will backfire on the GOP just as it did when they tried to impeach Bubba.
I think the ultimate question might turn out to be: “Regardless of the “conviction” vote, has the impeachment process grabbed the “boy-wonder’s” attention.
My forecast is...NO; and therein lies the dilemma of impeachment.
Don’t get down bro.
On the bright side, the tea party is probably growing exponentially every day the GOP dithers on impeachment.
They didn’t try to impeach Clinton. They did impeach him. But you’re right. The “trial” that Trent “Vacant” Lott held was designed to hurry up and get it over with. Imagine if a trial judge said “the jury can read the grand jury report, so we don’t need witnesses and testimony. You all just read it and then vote.” I can only imagine what kind of “trial” Harry Reid would stage.

I agree with that. But OTOH, talking it up is still useful. So we should all continue to support Palin.
