Well I for one am not the least bit surprised. I believe this is business as usual for many aspects of state government, some more than others. A real eye opener for me was when I read Charlie Wilson's War. I was quite surprised by the level of back door deals done in Washington between the elected officials that were done only for the purpose of payback and greased palms, where it was in the form of tit for tat votes or actual cash.
