It's not the money that corrupts politics, it's the power. McCain is addicted to power and addicts need the money to maintain their habit, to pay for their next fix. He can't even see that he has a problem. Everything is okay because he is okay.

The corruption isn't the money, it's the government that can't keep their nose out of every stinking little aspect of people's lives. The problem is the power and, so, now it is McCain.

Will McCain do the right thing and resign before his addiction does more damage to the country? Nah!
