When you lose Ben Sasse you have lost the country.

The Halloween vote for impeachment was an enormous strategic defeat for Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
She admitted seven months ago, in a March 6 interview with The Washington Post, that a purely partisan impeachment vote was wrong and dangerous. She was right. Here are her own words:
“I’m not for impeachment. This is news. I haven’t said this to any press person before. But since you asked, and I’ve been thinking about this, impeachment is so divisive to the country that unless there’s something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan, I don’t think we should go down that path because it divides the country. And he’s just not worth it.”
Measured by that standard, the Thursday vote was a terrible failure. The House voted in an entirely partisan manner except for two Democrats who split to vote no with the Republicans.
Months of leaks, secret investigations, news media hysteria, and a parade of witnesses failed to move a single Republican to vote yes.
The so-called whistleblower has decayed into a potential liability so much the Democrats are now talking about never bringing him to testify.
Senate Republicans have been so turned off by the House Democrats that Senator Ben Sasse of Nebraska, one of President Trump’s more outspoken Republican members, has called their effort “a partisan clown show.”

The whistleblower will never testify. Not because it’s a liability, but rather because the whistleblower does not exist.
Attention Fox Bashing Freepers!!
This is a Fox News article.
You are wrong in your slavish attachment to anti Fox Myth
Even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day.
No, we are not. They hired Brazille, continue to employ Williams, and their lead anchors salivate at every Never Trumper moment. Shep Smith disappeared under a cloud—still wonder what he ran away from and when it becomes public, but whatever it is, Fox appears to have protected itself. This is a Never Trumper organization with a few exceptions.
Nope. It's a Newt article hosted by Fox News.
Newt didn’t make clear that the House “Halloween impeachment vote” IS NOT the same as an impeachment vote.
What he used Pelosi’s words on impeachment (that she’s against it unless it is ‘so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan’) does not apply to last Thursday’s vote at all.
Attention Fox Bashing Freepers!!MORE FAKE NEWS!This is a Fox News article.
You are wrong in your slavish attachment to anti Fox Myth
This is NOT a Fox News article. It's an opinion by Newt Gingrich.
No one at Fox News had any part in reporting the facts presented in the opinion expressed by Newt Gingrich.
Nice try though.
BTW. We (as in our most dedicated President ever) likely wouldn't be in this mess if it wasn't for then Speaker Paul Ryan...Who now works at the upper echelons of Fox News
What does the word, NEVER in the
Word, NEVERTRUMPER, mean?
Words MEAN things as per Rush Limbaugh.
That the anchors of FOX’s opinion shiws at night, Tucker Carlson, Sean Haanity, Laura Ingaham and Mark Levin are staunch Trump supporters already disproves the notion that Fox is NeverTrump.
It is a Fox news article with a contribution by Speaker Newt.
You can deny till hell freezes over but you are delusionally wrong. Believing the dogmatic myth is archaic
Pelosi is a liberal, but she isn’t stupid. When she made that quote the Mueller report fizzled in spectacular fashion and at that moment she knew Impeachment was not going to work. She was trying to get that into the heads of her caucus.
But while she IS the Speaker of the House it is clear that she has lost control. The Four Horsefaces of the Apocalypse have more pull than she does.
At least she will have the solace of being able to tell them when it all implodes next year “I told you so”
I saw what you posted, and read it with interest.
I didn't have anything to add to it, but that doesn't mean I wasn't interested.
I saw the article, and I can tell you at least why I did not respond to it.
I have no idea who she is. I’ve never seen or heard her before that I know of.
Even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day.

3 times tomorrow, if if stopped somewhere between 1:00 and 2:00.
