Indeed, politics is a dirty business for the majority involved. That isn't to say that all Republicans and Democrats have their hands in the pot, but there is enough to sully to the whole thing. Those who aren't crooked are basically negated by the way the system is currently working.
I'm from Illinois and the dirty politicians (both parties)is far more than clean politicians. It's so disgraceful because known criminals are often re elected by large margins.

To the victors go the spoils. Can you imagine how many members of the Mormon Mafia would be in appointed positions, had Mitt won?
No, actually I can't. How many of the "Mormon Mafia" were in appointed positions when he was Governor of Massachusetts? That would probably be a pretty good indicator.
She will be a great asset ...Can it be any more obvious ?
Yes, she will be a great asset as Secretary of Commerce. I know it must be troublesome, however, for people who harbor prejudice against successful women, women who are strong supporters of charities and the arts ... and who don't like people who are Jewish.
So Romney, proven to be a crook and a liar is extolled by conservatives (even defended)...but this business success is a crook and a liar just because she works with Democrats. Wow, the single minded determination of conservatives to hate anything and anyone that doesn't fall in line like a good authoritarian lapdog and bow down to them is way past the boarder of pathological.

She represents everything you are against yet because she's a billionaire Dem backer you ignore the facts.
News flash..Romney isn't the President and Romney didn't appoint her.
She would have been appointed in 2008 if she wasn't hip deep in legal problems.
She is that 1% you can't stand and she's up near the top in YOUR party.
HappyTexan,
Some people are still enamored with hope and change.
-No lobbyists in the White House - failed
-End no bid government contracts above $25K - failed
-Reduce earmarks to 1994 levels by veto if necessary - failed (have gone up)
-Post all non-emergency bills online 5 days after passing through congress and before he signs them into law - failed
-Most transparent government - failed
-Close Gitmo - failed
-Go through the budget line by line to reduce waste - failed
-Cut the deficit in half by the end of his first term - failed
So, Romney's inherited wealth is a sign of intelligence and success. Pritzker's wealth is a negative.
Wasn't Donald Trump briefly the Republican front runner? Weren't Republicans lining up to kiss his ring?
The right wing is really pathological and transparent at this point. How can anyone take you seriously?
