The political cover is not for the liberals. It's for those who try to discredit an investigation by saying that it is a waste of taxpayers money. (Which was one of the things that Rethugs did say last fall in arguing that the courts should just dismiss these 'nuisance' lawsuits.) We aren't just appealing to the converted. We need to think about broadening this discussion and trying to pick up support among those who haven't read Conyers book and who don't know a lot about the problems in Ohio. That's where the 'political cover' comes in.

It makes for a better political argument. And it might get the lawsuit suport renewed.
