JCP, > The Founders presumed that impeachment would be used often, for a variety of reasons, not all of them criminal. Incompetence should well fall into this category.

I doubt it. The original wording is "high crimes and misdemeanors." Does that suggest a high standard or a low one?

Funny how during the Lewinsky scandal, Democrats were arguing for the higher standard.

Now with Bush in office and the Dems in control on Congress, you want to argue for the lower standard?
