Years ago, I happened to be seated at a dinner table with Bob Ney, then and still a Congressman from eastern Ohio. At the time, we had the House and the Senate, but Clinton was still President. He told me that, even if we control the House and the Senate and the Presidency, and even if we can control it long enough to realign the Supreme Court, we will NEVER control Washington, D.C.

He did not mean the city government, by the way; he meant the culture and the climate.

I also don't know if by "we" he meant Republicans or if he meant conservatives, but either way, he was and is right.

If Mr. Ney truly believes that, he's not in DC to advance anyone's cause but his own. That's not a conservative.
