I just hope that one Democrat will have the moral courage to stand up and break through and step forward and be a hero, like Howard Baker, a Republican Senator, who back during the Watergate hearings had the guts to stand up and say, "What did the President know and when did he know it?" And by doing that, he broke the logjam, brought down a very corrupt administration, a Republican administration, and American democracy is better for it today. I just pray to God that, for the sake of this country, Americans can see a Democrat step forward and do the same thing and that they will stop the political obstruction of justice in what clearly has become the largest fund-raising scandal in the history of this great Republic.
