Comey documents, then theres obviously the ground is shifting under the republicans and the Republican Leaders are trying to adjust, trying to figure out what their approach is. A special commission perhaps. We spoke to a number of members who thought perhaps that was a good idea. I have to say the majority of members that we spoke to coming out of this meeting who were conservatives which represents the bulk of the Republican Caucus here in the capitol on the house side thought it was a trumped up, pardon the pun.
