Good evening.

I think the point is that it would be a good thing for this scandal to simmer along until election time, then erupt like an ugly zit to remind voters of what DemocRATs are really like. It would also blunt the DemocRAT charge of a Republican culture of corruption.

I could be wrong.

No, you are absolutely correct.

I agree with this assessment, but I still find it strange. If a Member of the House is corrupt, we need to get rid of them immediately. Jefferson needs to resign now. If he won't, the criminal case needs to go forward without delay.

Even though I agree with your assessment, it doesn't change my opinion. It is not a good thing for corrupt Congressmen (whether Democrat or not) to remain in the House.
