Republicans do not want any talk about impeachment because they know

[malaise]

that voter turn out come November will be the highest in history if there is any discussion of impeaching Obama.

Have you folks seen how much money has rolled in since they mentioned that I word?

Please proceed former run-away governor!!!

1. But their voters love it. Hopefully our base will turn out to be bigger than their base.

I don't watch Fox 'news' but if they start full time advocacy for impeachment, it means the GOP/RNC is pushing it.

2. Their base in in chaos

the tea party ReTHUG morons are at war with establishment ReTHUGs.
Encourage the war and GOTV.

8. Hell's bells, I even write the Repukes demanding impeachment.

I write to the ones I consider weakest and easiest to beat, urging them to run. If there's any role I play well, it's dog in the manger - theirs.

3. We need to keep that going

If we lose the senate, they WILL start impeachment Nov 5th 2014.

11. Correct

5. Conviction in the Senate takes a 2/3 vote..

..simple math says it's doomed to failure even if Republicans take the Senate

[Hekate]

6. That's not even the point for the GOP. The point is to gum up the works and make sure....

...NOTHING gets done. Waste time, waste money, posture, hold hearings. FFS, what do you thing Benghazi has been all about?

[malaise]

10. They don't care about that

GOTV

[IrishAyes]

7. Damn. I was counting on impeachment to destroy THEM!

Guess it's back to the laboratory. I'll have to come up with something else.

[Unmenacing Dennis]

9. Damn Right They Know!

12. Give them time

For awhile, they weren't talking about breaching the debt ceiling or shutting down the government either let alone actually doing any of those things. This "lawsuit" that Boehner is pushing is idiotic but that won't satisfy the crazies who really want impeachment and I believe that eventually the Republicans in the House will take a bite of that apple. Gotta keep their base happy so that they will continue to blindly vote for them, right?

13. They all want to impeach but they are ery upset that lady Blah Blah let

the cat out of the bag.

14. I said this YEARS ago - Obama's approval rating would go to 70%+ if

they went ahead with impeachment, which is exactly why Boner is pushing this "lawsuit" horseshit.
