Sounds like a band aid situation to me.
It seems that when someone gets into power, the black tricks are done by the behind the scenes power brokers.
For some reason, anytime someone gets into a power political job, the egos have it and are above the law of the land. Whether it be in D C, State Capitols, or local polotics.
Well, We elect them dont We?

Sometimes, We just leave them there to dang long.
