Good Thursday morning and happy Halloween. I'm Jake Sherman and welcome to your political

playbook audio briefing. Stay tuned after the show for a message from pharma. And I'm Anna Palmer.

The Washington Nationals, that team we've been bugging you about and Jake's been watching obsessively

since April won the World Series Wednesday night in Houston.

Shocked?

Yeah, us too.

The Washington Post's front page headline reads,

At last, Nats are champs.

The post writes this,

When these Washington nationals are remembered,

in books, on bar stools, in bedtime stories for decades, it will begin on a chalkline diamond in Texas at the close of the baseball calendar with flying gloves and full hearts when eight months ended at last in the days of a long-shot dream.

The Nance Championship Parade will be this Saturday at 2 p.m. It will start on 15th and Constitution Avenue

Northwest and will end on 3rd Street, Northwest and Pennsylvania Avenue Northwest, just in front of

the Capitol with a rally. Barack Obama will raise money for the DNC, November 21st, in Los Altos Hills,

California. D&C Chairman Tom Perez will also be there. It'll cost $355,000 to be a chair of this fundraiser. That's a good amount of money. The House this morning will vote on the much Ballyhooed impeachment resolution, which gives the outlines of how the process will unfold going forward. The resolution has been the subject of much confusion this week, as many Democrats wonder why they're taking the vote,

and others wonder what vote they're taking. Here's House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer on people who say this vote is unnecessary. They're correct. We don't need this vote tomorrow.

After the impeachment vote, Representative Katie Hill, the Democrat from California, will give her

final address on the House floor. Heather Kagle and Sarah Ferris have a look at the

scrutiny and double standards that led to Hill's political downfall. Our darling Katie, it's so sad,

Pelosi said, according to two Democratic sources with knowledge of a meeting. It goes to show you,

we should say, to young candidates and to kids in kindergarten, really, be careful when

transmitting photos.
