A senator or congressman cannot be impeached. He can be expelled from his House of Congress by two-thirds of that House’s members.
Sounds good to me. Let’s get R’s on record voting for this corrupt so and so.
True. The prospects for expulsion are slim and none. Even if the GOP runs the table this November and flips all 21 dem Senate seats up in 2014, they would still be one vote short of the 67 votes necessary to expel Reid (and that assumes no GOP Senator votes no - not a sure thing in a GOP senatorial delegation populated by the likes of McCain and Graham. And I don't think anyone in their wildest fantasies is projecting a GOP Senate sweep in November.
We can always dream, I guess. Let's see: The pubbies run the table and Maine's Angus King goes with the GOP (that has been rumored). That's 67 - impeachment territory.
True, but he could be tarred and feathered and run out of town on a rail.
And he should be.
