I think its unethical, corrupt AND pretty standard party politics.
It removes potential candidates from running for a particular office who the people might elect. That limits the peoples choices to candidates those which others have selected.

If you use their moral compass they are creating a way for two valuable people to stay in public service... Democracy itself is unethical/immoral but it is the system in place.

Political parties are private organizations, with membership, and will do exactly what you say: they will act in a way that they think will give them the best chance to control the policies of the nation.
