I won't be Susan "Lucy" Collins' Charlie Brown. I wish there was some small reason to think

otherwise, but ol' "Lucy" is going to pull the football away ar the last second---again.

So, she is "concerned" about McConnell's announced bias, but she supports his approach to the impeachment "trial".

She "would like to hear from witnesses", but agrees with Mitch's plan to prohibit them.

And, now, she is criticizing House Democrats for not exploring evidence they did not know existed, but which Barr had in his possession.

I hope I am wrong, but this looks like a "done deal", folks. Prepare for a brief "proceeding", not a trial, which will conclude without a single witness being called, without a single document being produced. The Senate will vote along party lines NOT to convict just in time for the State of the Union to feature repeated references to Dear Leader's "total exoneration".

It's gonna get worse before it gets better.
