Once again the colloquial meaning of "impeach" becomes a problem

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

Blago will be impeached today.

That will have no effect on his status as governor.

An impeachment is like a legislative indictment. There has to be a trial.

And that trial can be a very drawn out affair.

But many folks will be confused why a guy who was impeached is still governor.

(It's not uncommon to hear someone say the Republicans tried to impeach Clinton. Actually, they did impeach him. He was not subsequently convicted and removed from office. Same as with Andrew Johnson... impeached but not convicted.)
