Poll question: Should the democratic platform in 2006 include the promise of impeachment?
That is, should the Democratic candidates for the House promise to vote for impeachment, should they be elected?

4. No. bad idea.
A political platform should be about ideas and a presenting a vision.

Impeachment would look small and petty in a party platform

7. "IF?"
The whole bloody lot of them should be indicted and thrown out. Impeachment would mean what? Cheney as Prez??? What could be worse than that?
