You can cite many more individual names from the the past, but having seen alot of it up close over the last 20 years, including the influence of the K street crowd for the last 10 years, you wont change my mind about the most recent level and pervasiveness of corruption that surpassed any previous Dem-controlled Congress (that includes, as I mentioned, the Abscam Congress, the Korea-gate Congress, and the Keating-Five Congress, all recognized as among the worst scandals in Congressional history) with the most violations of federal laws, campaign regulations, and/or congressional ethics rules.
This captures the
GOP Auction House pretty well, considering the source (DCCC).
I hope the voters continue to hold both parties accountable and those elected to power learn from it.
