They are in same pickle 1998 gop was in
1) the base wants impeachment
2) broader America does not
You don’t impeach, dem base might not turn out
You impeach, you risk turning away independents and you spike gop turnout
1998 GOP got burned for seeking it
Pelosi is a smart political cookie. We will see what happens

Party Republican Democratic
Leader since March 20, 1989 June 6, 1989
Leader's seat Georgia 6th Missouri 3rd
Last election 227 seats 206 seats
Seats won 223 211

Swing Increase 0.2% Decrease 0.9%
Why is this lie repeated over and over again?
They didn't "pay" for shite, they merely didn't gain seats as expected.
They didn't lose the House until 2006, after they had a few years of their typical Republican do nothing shite.
