Well, Butthead, if you know anything about elections, you would know that officially maximum contribution to a candidate running for a House seat is $2,000 for primary and $2,000 for election. So if these jerkoffs spend $5 million to get elected, believe me the bulk of the money comes from PACS not from us little people.

No, they pay $5 million to get in the "game". The game that lets an impeached president with no previous private sector work experience become a millionaire within months of leaving office by talking about himself.

Uh, Butthead, let's see. They do this willingly and repeatedly, and something like 96% of people in office run for re-election ... you can be sure that there are benefits far, far beyond the salary, which is why it's worth it to them to spend $5 million running for office in the first place.
