House Republicans' plan to sue President Obama was advanced out of committee today and is expected to come to a vote by the full House before they depart on their August vacation.
Democrats see the backlash potential. To sweeten the pot, they have linked the lawsuit to the calls from various Republican politicians for impeachment of the president.
In the crazy world of Washington politics and congressional absurdity, this is a marvelous gift to the Democrats.
Since the lawsuit was announced, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee alone has raised $7.6 million -- $1 million of that in one day.
Further, 74,000 first-time contributors sent in money.
Speaker Boehner is back-pedaling as fast as he can about the impeachment; afraid he's a little too late. Thanks to Sarah Palin for being among the first to yell the "I" word.
