I think it's time to dispel this notion that Congress is this corrupt place void of intelligence... There are plenty of very sharp, intellectually curious and motivated people there... It's just that they don't get any (like zilch, zero, nada) microphone time except on MSNBC... Other than that these people are blackballed from mainstream media... If that were to change then so would the public's misconceptions and would also allow Congress to work better... I mean, only bad behavior by boorish people get any real coverage...
