Anybody who watched any of the impeachment hearings yesterday could see that the Republicans have nothing - and they know it. All they have is posturing, character assassination, and demagoguery.

They pretty much followed the same pattern as before. The Democratic counsel asked a series of fact-finding questions, followed by the Republican counsel asking for opinions.
