3. Oh, I think "what the meaning of IS is" was much worse.

Because it obviously fed into the "Slick Willy" image they were trying to build of Clinton.

But this just appears to be feeding on itself. I can't believe the Republican Elites, with their poling machines and focus groups don't realize that the more they obsess over this, the more insane they look. I'm sure they're aware of it, but there's nothing they can do.

Boehner did his best to limit the damage from the Fast & Furious nonsense by scheduling Issa's silly CONTEMPT VOTE on Holder to coincide with the SCOTUS ruling on Obamacare, so that the vote would get buried by by the other news. Kudos to the GOP elite on that one, it was a slick move in the face of a no-win situation. Boehner realized the Holder Contempt vote would just be an EMBARRASSMENT to the GOP, and he's right. This is the same, but I don't think Boehner has any idea how to stop Issa on THIS one.
