From the link : Five Republicans said they would break with their party to vote against impeachment: Constance Morella, Md.; Amo Houghton, N.Y.; Jay Kim, Calif.; Peter King, N.Y.; and Christopher Shays, Conn. The chances are pretty high that all these 5 courageous Republicans will get destroyed by extreme right-wing rabid religious nuts in the next primaries, as a punishment for not obeying their party whip! (cf. what happened to the 7 courageous Republican Senators who crossed party lines and voted against removing Andrew Johnson in the Senate in 1868 -- they were defeated by their own party in the next election and many of them lived in abject poverty for the rest of their lives...) Ref: "Profiles in Courage" by John F. Kennedy, which profiles one of the courageous seven who crossed the line -- Senator Ross.
