When we reflect back on the candidates who chose to run during this last election, all but a few were really unfamiliar faces, but most were the very same people who had been in the service of lobbyist, and some for many many years.

Former Senator Daschle is a good example, and other than he not having paid his taxes from money he was paid as a Lobbyist, would have become the next Secretary of Health and Human Services. Former Senator Ron Cox, and now former Chairman of the SEC is another example. Neither ran for president, but both worked both sides of the fence, their pants legs were only caught on one side, the side that represented the people who they were supposedly elected to serve.
