Those in the National Republican Congressional Committee have generated six times as many stories about impeachment in key districts than their counterparts at the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, according to GOP estimates.
Outside conservative groups have spent more than four times as much money targeting House Democrats on impeachment than their liberal counterparts, according to those estimates.
The divergent strategies could be seen up close at the back-to-back news conferences held Thursday by Pelosi and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.).
In her nine-minute opening remarks, Pelosi made just one passing reference to the articles of impeachment that the House Judiciary Committee was debating at that moment. Instead, her initial comments focused on bills to lower the cost of prescription drugs, the new North American trade deal and many other issues that have passed the House.
