Has anyone asked Rudy Giuliani about this recently?
A friend of independent counsel Kenneth W. Starr, Giuliani defended Starr's report on President Clinton but said he would oppose impeachment. He called it a "mistake" for congressional Republicans to aggressively pursue the Clinton sex scandal (Washington Post, 12/6/98).
Not sure how that's going to play in a GOP primary...
I think there are plenty of Republicans would recognize that impeachment was a bridge too far. I know of at least two (admittedly moderate) GOP MoCs who have said as much privately. Like the government shutdown it was a game of chicken that they took a bit too far.
Will we see the Dems do the same with the war?
