How did Starr backpeddle? (as well he should have)

Starr didn't back pedal. He was carelessly misquoted all day. He never predicted GOP Senators would ask Trump to resign. The context of his comment was that is what some hope, but based on what we've seen so far that won't happen.

Russia had invaded Ukraine with tanks, guns etc, and Ukraines were dieting. Obama to the rescue with night vision goggles and blankets! But no guns or javelins, because Obama had that special flexibility the 2012 elections gave him.

your scenario is interesting, to say the least, but it's impossible -- Robotox has already said Articles would be filed and voted on by mid-Dec.

I know. It's a hypothetical that explains a possible way to impeach without the Senate taking it up. It is contingent on not voting to impeach in the House until next October.

The only way to defer it in any way is based on the first post in this thread that I responded to with this hypothetical, which suggested that Nadler would take up the hearings after Schiff is finished.

Would Pelosi call for the full House vote on impeachment based only on the Intelligence Committee hearings? I doubt it. I also doubt the Senate Judiciary Committee would accept articles of Impeachment as legitimate from anywhere other than their counterpart House Judiciary Committee.

Can Nadler hold his hearings in the Judiciary Committee between now and mid-December, with Thanksgiving and Christmas recesses coming up? Maybe, maybe not. That's only about a three week window of opportunity to get it scheduled, get witnesses lined up to appear, etc.

So, if Nadler were to hold "official" impeachment inquiry hearings at all, it would likely be in January 2020 at the beginning of the second session of this Congress. At that point, I'd think that Pelosi would want it all wrapped up by Super Tuesday in the first week of March.

No, she is ambiguous in cryptic mannerisms, taking subtle cheap-shots. On Sunday, Pelosi was extremely explicit while over-promising. There are anti-Trumpers that democrats need and if not impeached will go third party tipping a lot of elections.

For closing, Nunes yields back to Schiff “for storytime hour.”
Burn!

Schiff is doing it again, “Trump and Guliani threw acid in a woman’s face!”.

Schiff: They said they were treated very unfairly. That's not anti-corruption, That's corruption.

Projection much?

Oh I hope with my whole being this piece of Schitt gets what he deserves.

Now he dares to speak of hypocrisy, really?!!!

Corruption, corruption, says the one who REALLY knows about being corrupt.

And the Schitt Show is over for the day.

Evening session was a nothing burger, though NYTimes and mockingbird MSM got their soundbite.

Breaking News: Ukraine officials may have been aware of the hold on security aid much earlier than initially known, undercutting a key defense of the president.

Did anyone get to see what happened after the MSM dropped coverage? What a little piece of Hitler Schiff he is when no one is looking.
