4. I hate to be wishy washy on a DU poll, but for the first time I voted "Not Sure."

It would be tempting to hold the Articles back and prolong Trump's agony, but I'm worried there are consequences I'm not seeing right now. We can still keep investigating him, and indict him when he's out of office. Other than as a psychological tactic (that could backfire) I don't see the benefit. Yet that temptation is what keeps me from voting "send them to the Senate." So, I'M NOT SURE.
