There will definitely be some Dems that break with the no vote but they need a bunch to. Pretty sure they will have the votes

They'll probably hold two votes. Round one is when we will see a bunch of Democrats vote no. Then they'll deliberate for a few days and come back and vote again and they'll all vote yes the second time. This way those swing state Dems can at least tell their constituents they "tried" to vote no, but the others convinced them to vote yes.

Ultimately, there's too many corrupt bastards up there that face serious consequences if they fail.

I'm beginning to think this thing goes to the Senate after all. From there we will start to see some real fireworks. All up through election season too while several Dem frontrunners are sidelined in a humiliating "impeachment trial."

ETA: and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to see Trump ask the Republicans to vote yes. Send it to trial. He deserves the right to due process.
