It will be a disaster as it will show that the Republicans can get away with anything while the Democrats will crumple at the first sign of trouble. It will also embolden conservative ratfucking campaigns.

I wish folks on DU would move onto other news. There is a LOT going on.

9. I worded that weird...I meant, everyone's being negative assuming he's resigning tomorrow...

but he said the news report was false: he has NOT made a decision to resign.
