If the Texas Senators are allowed vote anonymously, they will convict Paxton because they already know he's guilty.

But the cagey party leaders will make sure that the Senate votes will be publicly reported and maybe even televised. In that case, the Repuke Senators will chicken out and vote to acquit. Because we know that none of them have spines. There aren't enough Democratic Senators to convict Paxton on party lines alone.
