When this committee was announced, my reaction was that any Democrats on it would be taking one for the team.

I don't agree with the boycott strategy. Having at least one Democrat on the committee will help to curb the GOP's worst excesses. Nevertheless, it will impede the ability of committee members to get any real work done.
