we have tried to make a difference on State and Local Democratic Party Interests. Learned the true lesson of D.C.back in the Sixties working on a Presidential Campaign in both Minnesota and Wisconsin. The Washington game is all about Wealth,Power,and Families. Anyone on the outside has to gain entry via Bastardizing one's ethics for wealth and your fifteen minutes of fame and glory. One trip to D.C. for a job interview pretty much did it for us. A Senior Senatorial Aide took us aside and gave us the lay of the land and how things really work. We and I mean my Spouse and I,were diffidently not a fit. Country bumpkins in the big City. First question was,which company was my employer,meaning that was going to be our focus as to any Legislation we would be working on or their corporate wants and needs. Thanks but no thanks.
