Why the Skittish Caucus is so Skittish About Impeachment.

125. I like working on real campaigns as well!

I intend to do so again next year as I have for many, many years in my district and state.

However, it almost sounds as if you are putting party over country. After all, I'm sure you would agree that our democracy, the rule of law, our values, etc. are under attack from trump. While Pelosi publicly states trump should go to prison, etc., a thoughtful person might say then WHY don't you pursue Articles of Impeachment?

We all recognize that turnout is essential for victory. Have you considered how some Democratic voters are becoming disillusioned? I've had some pp. in my Resist Group that are so disappointed at this juncture say that they will vote but not donate to any Dem's campaign in the House if they are putting their seat over attempting to hold trump accountable. I've had several others say they will consider becoming "Independent" and yet a few others say they will consider 3rd party candidates.

Point being, have you taken into consideration the pushback from some Democrat voters if we don't pursue impeachment? Some of those coveted Dem seats in the House could be impacted by this. There are many moving parts to this decision.

Alas, I don't have a crystal ball and no one else does either. That's why you don't go into a battle knowing you are going to win, you do it because it's the right thing to do for our country.




BTW, you said "Contrary to your claims, Nancy Pelosi is against impeachment at this point" I made no such claims. Quite the contrary...
