I've heard it said Karma is not a bitch she is simply justice. I don't know that I would put it quite that way but surely there is all kinds of poetic justice at work the last few weeks in the House GOP.

It just all fits so well. Even the conduit-Kevin McCarthy is perfect considering the BI has been a classic Nixonian operation of dirty tricks-ie, McCarthyism run amok.
Now the Hillary campaign and House Dems are reacting with further condemnations and calls for the investigation to shutdown.
How long can this be sustained? It's becoming increasingly possible for the GOP to put a happy face on anything that happens in Congress.
"The Clinton campaign on Saturday branded the House Select Committee on Benghazi a "sham" after a former staffer came forward alleging that the Republican-led panel is carrying out a "partisan investigation" targeting the former Secretary of State."
"As the top Democrats on the House Benghazi, intelligence and armed services committees also blasted the Benghazi probe, Clinton campaign press secretary Brian Fallon said the ex-staffer's accusations are "explosive."
"This Republican whistleblower's account from inside the Benghazi Committee may provide the most definitive proof to date that this taxpayer-funded investigation has been a partisan sham from the start," Fallon said.
"The top Democrat on the Benghazi committee, Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland, claimed former staffer Major Bradley Podliska's accusations backed up House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy's recent comments suggesting a slide in Clinton's poll numbers was linked to the committee's work."
"The House Intelligence Committee's top Democrat, Rep. Adam Schiff, and the ranking Democrat on the House Armed Services Committee, Rep. Adam Smith, renewed calls Saturday to shut down the committee."
"Even before Kevin McCarthy's comments laid bare the true intent of the committee, it's been clear that Secretary Clinton has been the true target of this investigation, and the Republican whistleblower who has come forward only provides further evidence of what has been long evident. It's time to shut down the Benghazi Select Committee," Schiff said in a statement.
Smith said "there should no longer be any doubt as to why the committee was created."
"If the allegations articulated by the investigator, who was handpicked by Gowdy, are true then we should slam the door shut on this ugly chapter in American history and close down the Benghazi Committee," Smith said in a statement.

I'll tell you what. Sean Trende is just turning out to be shockingly prophetic. Even I, Mr. Hyper Partisan Democrat and all around Hillarybot didn't want to believe Trende when he suggested that Boehner's stepping down puts the House in play for Dems in 2016-as the consensus was that we have no shot at that until 2020 and the new Census.

But what he meant by that is already becoming crystal clear.
