21. For impeachment to work, there has to be enough votes in the Senate to convict...

otherwise the House and the Democrats end up eating a backlash.

I think there are a lot of Congressmen wanting to impeach, but they're keeping their cards close to their chests, and discussing it in the backrooms. You can bet that once the backroom dealing's done and there are 67 promised Senate votes to convict, those Congressmen will show their hole cards and an impeachment will start happening in a hurry. Most likely by that time, Bush will resign, throw up his V for Victory signs and slink out on Army One.
