The issue is no longer what the Republican loyalists are going to do. That choir has already been sung to. The real question is how motivated the swing voters are in NOT voting Republican because they are turned off by a partisan effort to politically lynch a President that these swing voters happen to think is still doing the job to their satisfaction. The perjury and obstruction of justice mantra is a sales slogan. The Republican's are trying to sell this position. The 33% that have always hated Clinton are happy to buy this slogan, but they already have their minds set. What about all the people that aren't sold and aren't getting sold. The Republican's have been on the defensive all week. Take a look at Newsweek's CW section this week; it reflects what anyone out in the general public hears; they have come back to Clinton and Newt is looking like he is once again overreaching. Wider, longer, deeper; I just hope Newt keeps this up re: the impeachment proceedings. We'll see an end to the Republican House sooner than we had expected. Leave it to Newt to shoot every opportunity in the foot for the Democrats. He got Clinton elected in '96, and by God, he's going to get Clinton out of the current mess he's in. I'd like to see Newt try to get Clinton impeached if the vote in the House is on party line substantial and the general public sees it as an an underhanded abuse of a slight majority position and as something highly unfair; high unfairness, not high crime.
