New Mexico Republicans Cut and Run from Impeachment Debate

I have argued for some time that if Democrats ever worked up the guts to begin impeachment proceedings, they might be shocked to find Republicans refusing to defend him - or even enthusiastically throwing Bush under the bus.

Why? Because the 2006 election proved that Bush is the kiss of death to Republican candidates from coast to coast. Every Republican knows (s)he would be better off if Bush was out of the White House before November 2008.

Well it looks like I was right! When New Mexico Democrats led by Senator Gerald Ortiz y Pino and John Grubesic introduced a resolution to impeach Bush, Republicans cut and run from the debate!

This proves Democrats are on solid political ground by impeaching Bush and Cheney. Impeach Them Now!
