Our elected leaders serve an extremely important function in our system of governance and policy execution. Are they actually doing that job anymore?

Not really. It's more a matter of political maneuvering and jockeying for position and personal advancement of agenda. At least that's how it looks from where I sit.

Can't tell you when it happened. But at some point, the majority of our elected officials became more loyal to their party than to their constituents.
