The chairman of the House Intel committee, who is leading the impeachment inquiry, couldn't be more different than his prey.
No one understands the political perils of impeaching a president quite like Rep. Adam Schiff.
In 2000, he won a House seat centered in the north Los Angeles suburbs of Burbank, Glendale and Pasadena by defeating Republican incumbent James Rogan, a colorful and camera-loving former prosecutor who had become nationally prominent as a House manager of President Bill Clinton's impeachment.
While Schiff concentrated on district-specific issues, Rogan's high profile in going after Clinton made it easier to portray him as neglectful of his constituents' priorities, and it turned the contest into such a touchstone that donors from across the country poured record sums into the candidates' coffers. As a result, Schiff was able to subtly take advantage of voters' distaste for the Clinton impeachment without the risk inherent in making it the focus of his campaign.
"Rogan never really was able to escape any of that," said Bill Carrick, a consultant who was tapped by national Democrats to guide soft-money spending in western states that year. "He was sort of trapped in that impeachment thing. And Adam ran a good campaign."

LMAO!
Yes because Schiff has no problems lying to the American people, lying in front of Congress, setting up secret trails at secret locations and making things up. He would be even perfect working for Stalin!
Because is he a sociopath who can shamelessly lie. Same reason Chuck Shcumer was Clinton’s point man on Waco.
Perfectly punchable clown face? Does he have AOComedy approval?
So, Schiff is fruit, huh? Doesn’t surprise me in the least.
Are you, Ann, retarded?
A bought and sold congressman for Hollywood from Massachusetts.
A 'close friend' of Ed Buck who is the major donor and bundler in his district and tied in with all the 'elite'.
Was Schiff in Buck's apartment when black men were being shot up with drugs? Dunno. Prolly not.
Was Schiff aware of Buck's penchant for preying on young black men and killing them. Prolly.
What did Schiff do at the Standard Hotel? Do a search.
