Why Flakes actions are pointless and not, at all, beneficial politically or otherwise.

Flake cowering in fear over leftist zealots is a tower of shame, they should build a monument in Washington of it.
But besides that, all Flake did was give the Democrats another week to reorganize an attack method. At the same time it will solve NOTHING.

1) The Democrats will say a week is not enough.
2) THe FBI will produce a 280 page book of mostly nothing but details of where they were and who they talked to - but the Democrats will say they need months to go over the report...and if they don't get it - the Democrats will scream the Republicans are blocking the investigation.

In the end...
A) No investigation - the Democrats will scream Republicans are hiding from the truth.
B) An investigation without months of delay to go over pointless notes - the Democrats will scream Republicans are hiding from the truth.

Flake solved nothing but to continue the circus.
