Gallup Poll numbers released today reveal that Congress has a 10% approval rating: The lowest in recorded history. Strangely, the approval rating in December of 2010 was 13%. This followed an election and was prior to seating of the newly elected Congress, meaning that voters re-elected a majority of incumbents with an approval rating of 13%. With a track record like this, it is no wonder that politicians feel they have no accountability to voters.
Albert Einstein defined insanity as doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. However, when politicians do the same things over and over again and are re-elected, they are not insane, the voters are.
