Sen. Frank Watson, R-Greenville, very emotional. The best speech so far. The gist of it was that some went toe to toe with the governor but too many stood by, and this has to stop--those who are still in state government who participated in this must be shown the door.
The chamber has been quiet, but this got applause.
I will update with the text, or a clip, hopefully I can find it.
UPDATE: Here's the Trib's blog. They're voting now on impeachment...they've got the 40 to impeach...it's unanimous 59 to 0--and no one voted present.
UPDATE: He's convicted on the impeachment charges, now they're voting to bar him from further public office--unanimous.
