they are subjected to all sorts of requests, favors, quid quo pros, lobbyists, special interests, special interest groups, religious groups, racial groups, grumps, big money, etc.

Even the most well intended are caught up in the routine of being "beholding" to somebody or something.

Also every group whether it be mayors, preachers, school teachers, congressmen, et al has it's percentage of sleaze balls.....none are immune. All we can hope for is they are the minority count. And of course they are the ones who are newsworthy....eh?
