2. Manchin said the Committee is still looking forward to his testimony

like they looked forward to former employees Yates & Clapper.

5. Bet you only Democrats will show up...

[BumRushDaShow]

9. Actually the GOP will probably be there

to tear him a new one for NOT "indicting" Hillary. THAT is the angle that I am thinking. That would be a good way to go WAY off topic from the Russia issue.

11. Actually, I think it more likely...

...that the Republican majority on the committee will simply cancel the hearing. Sure, the Democrats can hold their own informal hearing (in a Capitol storage room, as happened during the Dubya era), but with no coverage and no resulting consequences.

3. I hope he still testifies.

If he can tell the truth, it would be nice to hear.

Fired or not.
