My biggest gripe these days is not about backstabbers like Graham but that the Capitol Rotunda 2nd floor is by far the busiest area of the Capitol as Congress members do TV spots. Meanwhile, the Senate and House chambers have been all but deserted even during critical votes and for literally years on end thanks to the cynical, cowardly nature of ‘leaders’ including Reid, Pelosi, Boehner, McConnell and Ryan.

The biggest problem with Congress is not partisanship, it’s cowardice. The media are only to happy to facilitate governance by arguing on the boob tube but it has theoretical and practical limits.

Well, at least the ones vying for photo ops took the time to show up. Marco Rubio couldn’t even manage that.
