23. It would backfire.
Especially if the Dems started with it right away. I agree with the people who are saying it is a bad idea. The Democrats have zero chance of actually making an impeachment stick. It would do nothing but make a poisonous political atmosphere even more so. The people do not want Congress to start bickering over an impeachment. The 109th Congress go nothing done. The people want Congress to do something. Let Pelosi do the work on raising the minimum wage, lowering prescription drug costs, fixing health care. Let the Dems show America that they can fix the Iraq problem. Gain their confidence. Once we do that, once we show that the Republicans are wrong about the Dems, then maybe bring up impeachment. But not until they've actually accomplished something in Congress.
