Don’t look now but I think you are beginning to have some impact on the issue of unlimited lobbying expenditures in the legislature. Our politicians seem none too happy about having to derail their gravy train. They have tried to ignore you (and me) or, when necessary, explain to us in the most condescending manner the fact that, just because they get to take expense-paid trips to fancy resorts (or Germany), get free meals or sit in private boxes at sporting events that you and I could never hope to see, courtesy of lizard-loafered lobbyists, none of this has any influence on the decisions they make.
