It is an interesting question. I believe many if not most go there thinking they will do a good job and can stay above it all, and then at some point realize the pact they have made with the dark side. I suspect most get lost in the vortex and begin to tell themselves how great they are. It is the hero in their own story syndrome.
I wonder how many congressperson feel like they are doing their job, and doing it well.
