When the jig was up on Richard Nixon in the summer of ’74, the GOP dispatched its Congressional leadership to the White House to tell the president that, in essence, he was through. They told him that any support from the party had collapsed, and that he could count only on a handful of Republican senators to vote against the impeachment charges already leveled by the House. The rest is history. Nixon resigned his presidency days later.

Can we expect the same from the Democrats? Not bloody likely. I cannot imagine under any circumstances the Democrats dispatching Pelosi, Reid, and other party elders to Chappaqua to tell Hillary the grim news that she must give up her candidacy “for the good of the country.” In other words, don’t hold your breath. First, none of them has the conviction nor the moral fiber to undertake such noble actions; secondly, none of them has the courage. It’s much like belling the cat.

Clinton will stay in the race and face an almost certain and deserved bloodbath at the hands of Donald J. Trump. It takes a village to burn a witch.

I hope you’re right, but I fear this may not move the needle enough. People who like Hillary are unmoved. Those who do not already despite her are insensate.

The GOP-e “leadership” tried to do the same thing to Trump last month. They failed.

But no, the DNC “leadership” will not go have a talk with Clinton. No more than the Politburo was going to tell Stalin “it’s over” in July 1941.

Any Dem approaching the Clinton mansion will be cut down by machine gun fire ala Tony Montana.

Reid has already been beat up in the past couple of years. There’s no way he’d put himself in the line of flying ashtrays and lamps.

“secondly, none of them has the courage. “

Third ... I’m pretty sure Reid, Pelosi, and the rest of the dragonflies of the swamp are all guilty too. They stab Hillary in the back, she ruins them ... That’s why they’ll continue to beat the “FBI did it wrong” drum.
