...at AfterDowningStreet.org. Some insightful analysis on the building GOP smear campaign against John Conyers, who has sounded but the faintest rumblings of impeachment.
Congressman Conyers has not done what the vast majority of Democratic voters and many Republicans want; he has not introduced articles of impeachment. Rather, he's stepped back a step and proposed creating an investigation that would make recommendations on impeachment. Talk about going slow! This is a proposal to make recommendations on beginning a process to charge people with a crime we all already know they're guilty of. That's all before a trial can even begin..
Swanson points to a poll that suggests - based on a survey of voters in battleground state Pennsylvania - that about 85% of Democrats would be likely to vote for a congressional candidate who supported impeachment. Interestingly, however, about 90% of Republicans said they would not support such a candidate. Anyhow, check Swanson's full article here.
