Too many of y'all are acting like Watergate was one big reveal. It took months of rigorous and boring reporting. Journalism takes time.

It took more than two years, from the break in at the Watergate in June 1972 to Nixon' resignation in August of 1974.

With the house and senate held by gop, and the fbi complicity and district gerrymandering, it's going to take some time to turn the republicans. They're still afraid of twitler and his ignoramus voters.

We'll need to turn more than graham and mcCain to get the job done. Rachel is furnishing the ammo, so, bravo to her.
