The smell of cooked goose...

[Carl Remick]

Charles,
I'm not sure how this will play out (in fact, I never thought it would
get this far), but I think if impeachment passes the House, Clinton
could be so discredited he'd be compelled to resign.  Why Republicans
would want to give Gore a free ride into office is beyond me, but they
sure seem intent on getting rid of Clinton.

Carl,

As an another attorney pointed out to me, to be
impeached is not to be forced from
office. The Senate must convict, by
vote of 2/3 of majority.

 The Republicans do not
have 2/3 majority in the Senate,
so unless some Democrats
break ranks (unlikely), Clinton
will not be removed from office.

The Republicans have basically
lost. They are like a basketball team that
is playing out the final moments, 
trying to make the score as close
as possible ,but
doesn't have a chance.

... fills the air, and NOT because the holidays are approaching.  For
the first time, I'm seriously considering the possibility Clinton will
be forced from office.  Despite how much I detest the man and his
policies, I'm infuriated by this prospect.  The GOP is basically telling
the American electorate to get stuffed.  Surely this must bother others
on this list.
