A new Center for American Progress poll in 48 Republican-held congressional districts finds a majority of voters think Republicans are more corrupt than Democrats, 54% to 46%.

(23,946 posts)at all and seems even Republican Fox-addled voters can not be persuaded to like corruption...a bipartisan issue if I ever did see one.
Corruption by elected officials have brought down far more regimes than all other eans combined, in my estimate.
Now if only the main stream media would dare mention the C word...only treason before the eyes of the world got them to finally state the obvious...constant and frank corruption reporting will finally come only after a thousand cuts also.

Used to be - before the age of rw hate radio and identity politics - that people often voted for pragmatic reasons, like having good checks and balances in govt - as much as for ideology.
The progressive movement of early 1900s was preceded by massive political corruption and monopolies having too much power. Similarly Repubs need to channel their inner Teddy Roosvelt - like, NOW!!!!
"Pay to play" = political corruption by definition. They use this innocuous phrase - normalizing what is really a crime (still on the books as such). Time to wake up. This really is the piece that needs to be fixed before anything else can be done - IMHO.

(30,613 posts)When corruption is so brazen, it becomes very difficult to ignore. The Despicables will continue to ignore it, of course, but they are a small minority.
