BENGHAZI PROBE TO INCLUDE DEMS – AT 9:16 A.M. ET:  Nancy Pelosi has decided to allow Dems to serve on Trey Gowdy's House committee that is investigating Benghazi.  One of them is Elijah Cummings, the intense Dem political hack who is correctly seen as representing the Obama White House.

Where did the pressure come from that caused Nancy to let Dems serve?  Originally we were told she was in favor of boycotting the committee.  Here's an enlightening report from The Politico: 

Hillary Clinton’s world was so worried about a Republican investigation of the Benghazi attacks, they sent a message to House Democrats: We need backup.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) publicly considered boycotting the panel, an idea that Clinton supporters feared would leave the potential 2016 candidate exposed to the enemy fire of House Republicans.

COMMENT:  The Dems will stall the hearings and try to turn them into a farce.  Cummings has already rendered judgment, declaring the hearings a witch hunt.  But I have great confidence in Trey Gowdy.  He handles himself well.  He's very smart and very verbal.
