@lou502008 No, they didn't. They were ready, the evidence is there and the argument was sound. And they dropped nothing. They ensured the GOP loses either way on this. It was the question of a quick but painful course reversal or a long, slow, embarrassing death. Guess which they chose?

Not even close. Here's what Senator Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., said today:
[quote]I don't need to hear any more evidence to decide that the president did what he's charged with doing. [b][i][u]So if you've got eight witnesses saying that you left the scene of an accident, you don't need nine[/u][/i][/b]....
I think it's appropriate for me as a United States senator to say, 'Mr. President, you shouldn't do that.' But that doesn't mean that I should take it upon myself to vote, to remove him from office and take him off the ballot. I think that's up to the people.

It's not a question of whether they believe he did not do it, it's that they're not willing to vote country ahead of party.
