re: #274 I Would Prefer Not To

Her job is not to count the fucking votes. Her job is to make her case and earn the votes.

“I’m not voting for Hillary Clinton because she didn’t earn my vote.”

Her job absolutely is to count votes.

All the investigations by House committees now can instantly be turned into “Impeachment enquiry” as soon as enough people in the electorate are behind impeachment.

The fact remains there is a significant portion of the electorate which is not convinced. A failed impeachment charge would be an unmitigated disaster.

Nixon was brought down by relentless coverage of the Watergate scandal, and a significant portion of the electorate above the crasification factor were still unconvinced.

I get it, we want Trump gone today. That isn’t happening; to build a case against the king you need to have an airtight case. And if you go for the king, you get one shot, and you’d better not miss.
