Is Running for Office Worth It?
Who in their right mind would run for office in this country?
We can lament the quality of candidates and the makeup of the Congress, but what smart, qualified person would even care to run? You'd have to be a completely narcissistic, power-hungry egomaniac or a fool. Many well-meaning, decent candidates learn too late they were the latter, serving as lessons for other would-be candidates that it's just not worth it.
