“The Republicans I've been talking to have said, 'Oh, the public is cynical about indictments, they happen so often.' Well, that's whistling past the graveyard, because the average voter is only going to remember that one of the big Republican head honchos in Congress was indicted. They won't remember the name or position, but they'll remember it says Congress is corrupt and maybe the majority party is corrupt.” WellsSaidBigsHappensPastRememberNamesPartyTalkingPositionRepublicanMajorityCongressAverageCorruptionVotersCynicalGraveyardWhistlingIndictment Author:Larry Sabato
“Charitable endeavour exalts the prestige and the status of the giver. This may sound unduly cynical but as with all philantrophic activity, it is not easy to unravel the mutually reinforcing motives of selflessness and self-interest. All that can safely be said is that most members of the royal family have difficulty distinguishing between concern about society, concern about the social order and concern about what best to do so they can remain at the top of it.” MaySaidSelfOrderSocialEasySoundInterestActivityMembersConcernDifficultyMotiveCynicalSelflessnessRoyalSelf InterestGiverEndeavourPrestigeCharitableSocial OrderBritish HistoryRoyal Family Author:David Cannadine
