The Hardship Of Going To Congress

I was watching the TV and an interview with Jim Webb. He and Morning Joe were talking about the hardships of being in Congress. The long hours, the lack of family time, etc, etc. Joe spent the time telling everyone his experiences as a Congressman from North Florida. He talked about the missing time with his family and other boo-hoo subjects.

I got to thinking--it must be horrible! He got a TV show and radio gig out of the deal. It is not like he had to go back to work as a wannabe lawyer, but rather a well paid media personality. So that bring s me to my point--if the life is so hard on these poor people why do they want to stay forever? The possibility of becoming a millionaire has nothing to do with it at all, I am sure. (sarcasm intended)

So to cry about the time lost from family is just pure steaming bovine fecal matter. Power, money and .......thinking.......that is about it--power and money! These people want to appear to have the same concerns as others, HA! They are motivated not by family ties or anything else normal, but rather by the big two. IT IS ALWAYS ABOUT MONEY AND POWER!

QUESTION: When a candidate loses the election and he/she still has ...say....$3 million in the bank from their fundraising..what becomes of the left over money?
