but then again, i wonder how many even consider "the public good" a viable notion anymore. i think most practicing pols see that as an antiquated notion -- fundraising is all that matters anymore. and hell, we don't even have money enough to put food on the table, keep our kids in school and have decent housing. We The People, are not on anyone's radar.
