I have long held the theory that there is a central stash of blackmail material on every consequential person in the national government, especially in Congress. New congressmen and senators are tempted and led astray with wealth and sex when they first are elected, while they are still naive. Stray from the party line, and it comes out of the closet to be held over their heads. Case in point: John Roberts.
