16. Impeachment
I'm pro impeachment, but I understand her strategy now. The minority party doesn't have a snowballs chance in hell of getting anywhere close to impeachment proceedings. You only get one chance at impeachment, and you'd better be sure you can make it happen. Proceedings now would only cripple the Dem's, polarize the vote and give the shrub a pass. As Napoleon said, "If you threaten to take Vienna, you must take Vienna." Impeachment now would be like Eisenhower launching D-day after Pearl Harbor.

First we have to lay the groundwork, elect a majority, and then clamor for impeachment. Although, being a grass roots person I feel entitled to agitate for it now in anticipation of a majority.
