Two House Democrats who represent Trump districts voted against formalizing the House impeachment probe back in October. Jeff Van Drew, 66, a freshman who represents New Jersey’s 2nd Congressional District, and Collin Peterson of Minnesota, 75, a conservative Democrat who represents Minnesota’s 7th District, were the only two lawmakers from either party to cross the aisle.President Trump carried Rep. Collin Peterson’s district by nearly 31 points in 2016.On Thursday Michigan Democrat Dan Kildee signaled he may abandon Pelosi’s sinking ship. Kildee said his constituents

At first blush, I am betting Pelosi would love to find another 14 Dem no votes. She can claim she did all she could to impeach Mr. Trump (a win for her in some weird sense) and yet she does not have to deal with the fallout from impeachment for Dems (another win for her in some weird sense). In other words, she can claim the moral high ground in view of her Commie-Left supporters.

No fear, they will all receive a visit from 'The Squad' or from a representative of the 'Reistance' and will quickly be brought back onto the Dem plantation.

I would be very amused to see if any current Rats would be willing to switch parties and tip the scales to the R's in the near future. What a Christmas present THAT would be.

We can still hold their previous vote against them in 2020. They ALL need to be held accountable - if only for having let Pelosi and Schiff run wild. They don't get to play 'Never Mind' at this late date.

Is this really news? The two that are on record and a vague “maybe-ish”?

If there is one thing Pelosi knows how to do, it's count votes. She will allow certain reps to vote against impeachment to protect them but she will get her way even if by a single vote. The question is: what is her way? I still believe she would prefer to censure rather than have a senate trial.

First time I am proud of a Democrat from my home state of New Jersey! There may be hope yet.

If there are 14 mores red state House dims who are vulnernable in the November 2020 election, they will be pressured by Nan to keep their cards close to the vest until after the phony articles of impeachment are drafted. Nan and her thugs need to monitor which way the wind will be blowing at that time. There will be either no vote, a vote to impeach, a vote not to impeach, or a vote to censure. The deep state, the globalists, Soros, and Hollywood will decide which option is preferred and deliver their marching orders to Nan and her useful idiots.

You have to wonder if many democrats are much afraid of Pelosi any more. She has been reduced by the ''squad'' and will surely lose the House in 2020. The democrat party must have a revolt, very soon, if it is to survive as a viable party.

She wouldn't have told Nadler to draft articles of impeachment if she didn't already have the votes lined up. Anyone who defects from here on will have her permission to vote no. That's how she works.

The proof will be how much money the DCCC puts out in those districts where the new Dem rep votes NO on this circus. If DCCC gives them loot, then the fix was in.

NO, NO, NO!
This must go to the Senate to strip Dems bare of their Web of Lies, Cover-ups, Colusions, Conspiracies and the Biden's Corruptions in both Europe and China.
Drag it out 4 to 6 weeks, or more!
Repub House Members should vote in Unison to IMPEACH so we have the opportunity to Rip the Dems Limb from Limb and and BARE their Marxist/Stalinist/Fascist/Socialist Third World Gutt-Stabbing Methodes to the American Public and the World!
The World would understand why a Repub House Voted for Impeachment of their President while Lefties would have Massive Convulsions as the Vote Count was Tallied.
There aren't enough Depends in North America to keep the Office Chairs of the Dems DRY!
In the Senate, we could show the World what has become of the Democrap Party that was once an Equal and Honorable Partner in American Politics but has now become a Left Wing/Fascist Pile of Crap.
A Battle Royal in the Senate would be our 'Yorktown of 2019/2020' and set America Straight for Decades to come.
I'm serious. We really need to move this to the Senate and NOT let it Die in the House and NOT Settle for Censure!
Even the POTUS agrees with me! HaHa
Dont give Polussy any Options. Force this into the Senate........

I dont care how the 31 rats vote. You can never trust a Rat. After an election a Rat will do what it wants then change and lie to win again. Never vote for any Rat in any election. This is doctrine.

Never buy a crystal ball at a Dollar store. Nancy will soon find out that they are worthless. I'm smiling.

Unless I am entirely lacking in Civics education, I believe it is quite possible to run for Congress as an Independent. Joseph Lieberman comes to mind. Hell I might give it a shot myself, or the senate if Cornyn does something stupid.

Impeachment isn't going anywhere. Pelosi knew that going in. The only question is how to extricate herself from the "inquiry" mess Schiff and Nadler created/expanded. It is likely that she will be forced to "admit" there aren't the votes for impeachment, but plenty for censure - and since '20 is an election year, let the American people decide. Censure is likely to grab a few GOPe votes to make it "bi-partisan."

Not to burst anyone’s bubble but Dave Loebsack can vote how he wants and pay no price. He is retiring in 2020.

#16 - If you run against Cornyn be sure your life insurance payments are up to date. The last guy that tried to primary Cornyn is now in jail. You may not be so lucky. Cornyn has a political machine that is modeled after the ChiCongo political apparatus. Usurpers are strongly dealt with.

The first two demonrats got previous permission from Piglousi. It looks like the 3rd just got permission.

This is becoming tiring, no? But wait! The RATS now state they will impeach Trump again if the Senate acquits! Looks like a public taking out of the trash! Although, every second devoted to impeachment insanity keeps the grab for your dough to fund a green utopia full of domineering man hating women, soy boys and lots of happy happy Polar Bears at bay!
