I don't think that the rules are the same. The article says that the Senate appoints a panel of seven to hear the case, not the whole Senate.

like fer sure!

using a name like Nixon as eternally associated as it is with Dick Nixon in this day and age of instant international communications Id have thought at least one editor would have noted the possbility for miscommunication...

Uh! could we get pictures of that young blond hired based on cup size that you spoke of so that we may determine actual guilt or innocence?

Republicans have a veto-proof majority in the House. In the Senate, they are one vote shy of a veto-proof majority—and therein lies a tale. Gov. Nixon has refused to call an election for a vacant Senate seat—vacant since June—in a safe Republican district.

THIS is far more impeachment worthy to me, but whatev. He vetoed the tax cuts declaring it might "hurt" education, while withholding millions of dollars that would go to... education? This guy has turned his sights to national office, methinks. Only true assholes act like this in order to get to the next level.

Nixon was moderately reasonable his first term. He is acting like he has nothing to lose now. Maybe he is sharpening his chops for a US Senate run.
