When they get there they quickly find out they are puppets of the beltway establishment, and can do nothing without their approval. Well, they can, but the pork funds they can send to those that elect them will dry up, and they won't be back the next term, and they know it. So then, they are no longer representatives of the people. They represent the establishment at that point. How we correct this, I don't know, but I do know what the problem is. Fire em all? Nothing will change. The next leader of the congress will nothing different.</blockquote>
