person, as a member of this jury, but the question of whether the house might have some leverage in terms of trying to get the senate to pick rules that are agreed to on bipartisan terms, is now a very live question. in the impeachment senate trial of bill clinton, the top democrat and the top republican worked together, they came up with rules for that senate trial for president clinton that were agreed to by a bipartisan unanimous 100-0 vote. doesn't seem like anything like that is going to happen, but the prospect was being discussed there in that heated back and forth with a number of different reporters that the house, nancy pelosi, may hold onto these articles of impeachment now, they have passed the house and the president is impeached, she's not committing to when she's going to hand those articles of impeachment over to the senate, saying that she wants to see what is agreed to in the senate as to their rules and as to their plans procedures for putting president trump on trial.
