Good point. Members of congress are supposed to represent their voting district; unfortunately, this has fallen by the wayside, and now each member of congress represents a party, an army of campaign contributors and lobbyists, a set of political ambitions, and occasionally the people of the district as well. I covet a congressperson who never acts based on future political ambitions or campaign contributions; it seems like this is a backhanded way to accomplish that goal.
