The 2nd to last honest man in Washington (the last is Joe Lieberman) will now make more money doing the job he did while he was a senator.
One of my big pet peeves is politicians who express folksy affinity for their home states but who never ever return to them. I'm not talking about the inevitable moving the family to Washington that politicians have to do for practical reasons while they're in office, I'm talking about the ones who drone on about the joys of their states and their college football teams and blah blah blah but who somehow never manage to go back to them...
