“I’m surprised how many Dems finally get it.”

I suggest waiting for some hatching before you start counting. Dems aren’t hurting.

The Dems haven’t done anything meaningful. Conyers is 88, going out in public in pajamas. He was finished soon anyway and it’s a safe Dem seat.

Franken has not resigned, claimed innocence in his speech if you listen closely to his word parsing, and made no apology at all in that speech.

Hollywooders being taken is down is fun but they don’t count except for finally providing some decent entertainment.

Trent Franks has resigned, so the R’s lost one there.

You misunderstand. I'm talking about the feelings of Democrat's voting fodder, not the leadership or the DC head count. Democratic voters saw the DNC at its worst stealing the nomination for hillary, now they see their scheming to make Roy Moore look bad costing them Civil Rights icon Conyers (who did use illegal funds for hush money) and their willingness to sacrifice one of their most-loved US Senators, Al Franken.

All of a sudden "guilty until proven innocent" isn't so terrific.
