I've known hundreds of politicans, and have worked for many. I just came from a breakfast where there must have been 15 pols, including the infamous Patrick Kennedy (man, he's really starting to look old for his age).
The problem is not that these are evil people. Most of them come to their jobs with idealism. BUT YOU CAN'T LEAVE THEM THERE FOR TOO LONG. The system gets to almost everone eventually.
Sweep the decks, and do it regularly.
