comer's model is clearly the benghazi hearings, and they harmed clinton without harming the gop for partisanship so why shouldn't he say the quiet part out loud?

I guess Comer and co. have never heard the old saying that it's better to stay quiet and have people think you're an idiot, than open one's mouth and remove all doubt.

This, exactly. There is no downside and it actually might increase support for the investigations as a way to hurt Biden and boost Trump.

ItтАЩs saddening, but I think your comments are correct. Comer and his folks sure do think so differently than I. Sickening.

"think" is a very charitable term to use for these empty suits.

Roderick, your point is correct. IтАЩm seething at the utter stupidity and ignorance of Comer and his minions. So, I am just trying sooo hard to keep my comments civil and respectful. But, again, your observation is on-point.

So, Comer and his minions are stupid and ignorant.

But - trump's numbers are going up.

Because the people Comer and his minions are preaching to are just as stupid and ignorant.

The solution is not to shut Comer et al up - it's to make people aware of how stupid etc they are.

And that takes education - which the Republicans have been extremely successful in destroying.

And we sit in hope that polling is truly broken, that the numbers (Trump going up) are misleading, that a significant majority of the country would brave a blizzard to vote against him. I know I would. But will there be enough? Not so easily answered.
