On the other hand, the GOP could screw itself up if it gets control of Congress. For starters, the base is going to want their impeachment of Obama (never mind the impossibility of getting 2/3 in the Senate to convict). That wouldn’t go any better for the GOP than the impeachment of Clinton did.

Many of the GOP’s congresscritters are bright enough to know that actually convicting Obama and thus removing him from office is a near-impossibility. They’re also cynical enough to know that a drawn out impeachment process in which Obama is investigated for everything from loitering with intent to high treason will be a great springboard for their nominee in 2016. Months of leaks, accusations, speculation and innuendo, aided and abetted by the MSM will do the trick nicely.
