"""In other words, he's been an utterly-useless parasite his whole adult life, sucking on the taxpayer tit. Never had to achieve against performance benchmarks, try to hold a company's payroll together, or market a product to a skeptical marketplace. He's just squandered other people's money to buy votes, with no innate understanding of where that money comes from. """

Why would you associate the great Churchill with THAT idiotic comment? How many decades did Winston serve in governmental positions? 3, 4 , 5? Longer than Breaux no doubt.

Why do businessmen happily throw away millions to become a Senator? Maybe because they realize that is a chance to do something of transcending significance for the nation which overrides the penny-ante life of a businessman?

The Founders understood the necessity for the very best to serve in government how did you fall short of that understanding? Too many Ayn Rand "novels?"
