There’d have to be someone with stones running ... perhaps Ted Cruz, Sarah Palin or Trey Gowdy, but the chances of that are right between slim and none. No, someone like Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, Mitt Romney, Marco Rubio or some other moderate Ripon GOP governor will be the nominee and will be scared to death to run that ad. The geniuses that ran the McCain, Romney and Bush 2000 campaigns will be in charge, again.
Bttt
I think you nailed it, 2ndDivisionVet. I, too, have no confidence the Republicans will bring up this act of unbelievable lack of basic duty to those brave men. I’ve totally given up on that party; they are not worthy of my support.

You have some building set upon by vandals, hooligans, and terrorists...you call for help from the only source possible....and they do nothing. Perhaps in the background, one voice suggesting maybe they should call for the French.One simple thirty-second commercial...destroys the 2016 election for the Democrat running for President, five or six Democratic Senators, and really puts the news media in an awkward position.

If in fact the Democrats boycott these hearings, the issue of what kind of Republican will be nominated in ’16 might very well be as much of an issue in the hearings as whether a Democrat can be trusted in the oval office.Romney’s decision to punt on Benghazi in the third debate isn’t likely to look particularly statesmanlike when this investigation is done.
