Eating their own
By now everyone's heard that Nancy Pelosi has (at least publicly) pulled impeachment off the table (H/T Blue Crab Boulevard). Me, I don't buy it. This is just to counter the Republican stategy of letting the voters know that Democrats care more about satisfying their BDS cravings than keeping the country safe.
As Blue Crab Boulevard notes, the left has been fairly quiet about the announcement. I guess it's starting to sink in, though, as David from Radio Left declares "Democrats need to get rid of Pelosi". Here's more:
Rich Hope: "the democrats should go to hell in the same way that I hope the republicans will"
Aaron Bonn on DKos: "I say it's time to impeach Pelosi from her position within our party."
Robb Black on DKos: "I think this is simply pathetic..."
Folks, don't be fooled. She's lying through her teeth. Of course, it's nice to see you guys eat your own...

Another guy running, I can't remember who,when asked what would change if the Dem's took over congress said "Supoenas Power!".
Look for a long list of hearings if they take over congress.

You're right - it's safe for Nancy to claim that impeachment is out, but have hearing after hearing until she suddenly changes her mind...
Actually, she's in a lose-lose situation with this. I hope Republicans can take advantage of this gift.
