No question about it: Tom Daschle is their D equivalent. Almost like a designated attack dog who's supposed to say stuff anti-the-other-side, in the hopes that some of it will stick to the media.
Congress just isn't a source of wisdom. When the news channels talk to the elected reps, they never have much insight - except for people on intelligence committees or armed services committees, where they've actually dealt with some of the matters involved.
They're just 99.9% political, even on matters that are too important for politics.
