A bunch of them might have been moderates when they ran for office but a few weeks in D.C. and they will come around to what ever Madam Speaker wants. It's like "do you want your desk in the hall or a nice office. Play by my rules and you will be treated well."

Yep. That's the way it works. You've got to go along with the party line to get along in DC. Especially for a freshman representative who maybe wants to stay in Congress and get a good committee assignment that could help his district. The only good thing about that is that in two years maybe the people of his district will see what he has become (gone over to the moonbats) and go back to the Pubbies if they put up a good candidate.
