The Dems have already won. Self-censorship is the worst censorship of all. The Reps are on the defensive.

Republicans should be cautiously optimistic that the committee is on track. There are a few takeaways from this.

First, Gowdy is intensely conscious of the danger of meandering, showboating and ineffective questioning.

Second, a lot of the committee’s work is going to be done off-camera.

Third, Republicans should hope that Gowdy and Kiko put committee members on a short leash and focus on the precise issues they want to explore.

Oh, yes. The Reps must be much more circumspect so as not to politicize something that has already been politicized. I wonder where those concerns were when the Dems were running the Watergate investigations or Iran-Contra. The Benghazi investigation must meet the "purer than Caesar's wife" test. As I said, the Dems have already won.
