I mean, sure, I work at a bank, but I ain't exactly "Wall Street".

It’s just so hard to comprehend the GOP race to the bottom. I mean, there have got to be a modestly significant percent of them who realize that this is nothing but doing the same thing and hoping it will somehow turn out differently. They may be mostly evil, but I don’t think they are ALL as stupid as Tommy Tubbs. Yet you can count the number who seem to have some fragment of integrity on the thumbs of one hand. So is it just peer pressure which keeps them in line?

I guess the reality is, they are smart enough to realize that a principled stand is a ticket to getting primaried. And while maybe some of them would LIKE to have a backbone, the reality is they far prefer to have a cushy job where they can tell people what to do. When in doubt, keep riding the train...
