...House on Thursday evening, an exuberant crowd of about 3,000 collected along Pennsylvania Avenue and in Lafayette Square. Some waved sparklers, some carried vindictive placards (EXECUTIVE DELETED, IMPEACH THE SYSTEM), and one planted on the White House fence a slightly spaced-out message of cheer: DING DONG, THE WITCH is DEAD.

...saying in an informal chat with three newsmen (Rodino thought it was off the record) that all 21 of the committee's Democrats were prepared to vote for impeachment. White House Communications Director Ken Clawson claimed that this confirmed that Nixon was the "subject of a witch hunt." Rodino heatedly denied the statement, but another reporter present, ABC'S Sam Donaldson, said Rodino had observed that it was his "sense of the mood" of the Democrats that they would vote in such a way. Other observers, too, had assessed this sentiment in a similar fashion...
