Rendell: GOP Ruining Shot at Midterm Success With Impeachment Talk, Immigration

‘This party, with impeachment talk, with their performance ... they are trying their very, very best to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory’

RENDELL: "You know, there are things that could be done to keep things moving, but John Boehner has to decide he’s going to take on the Tea Party caucus. And he’s got to show some leadership. Look, by doing what they did, they gave the Democrats a good opportunity to spend five weeks just hammering them. It’s clearly a strategic mistake. They sort of become the problem. I thought that this was going to be good Republican year, maybe even a terrific Republican year. Not quite as good as 2010. But this party, with impeachment talk, with their performance that Michael highlighted - they are trying their very, very best to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory."
