Nancy will follow the majority of her caucus.

If the majority chooses to impeach, Nancy will support them.

However, at this time, there are only 50-odd Congressmen in favor.

Nancy will not veer too far from the will of the majority, in my opinion.

This is a reality which she must deal with.

That's her special skill. Next to that, her ability to convince people in the caucus to do things is a close second.

But about a dozen have changed their minds this week. If a flood of Democrats begin to support impeachment, Nancy will go along, in my opinion.

of any kind asap post report where people were straw polled? Not told bad idea but just asked without influence. Why would it take so long to decide?
