I have begun to wonder if the real problem is not a lack of courage by Hatch and Frist, but rather a problem of goals. The overriding goal seems to have become the perpetuating of the Senate Club and the power of the members individually and collectively. Their first loyalty is to themselves and their fellow senators, not the country or the party.

I think you are on to something. Personally, I would not choose to join a club that allowed Patrick Leahy to be a member.
