A Singular Politician

I am reminded of a kafka like labyrinth of bureacratic servitude, haunted by loneley specters

This picture sets up the Let’s Make a Deal scenario perfectly: what’s behind door Number 1, Arlen? And lots of jokes about the three doors in hell… Or, don’t let the doors hit you on the way out.
There are several “key” votes coming up on the Hill and the results will bode how well this “not loyal Democrat” fares. My guess is a tough primary fight and election campaign at the end of the hallway.
Without the right key, none of those doors will open to him again. He may be doomed to pace the corridors of power forever and never get back inside the room.
Great image depicting how a man’s choices can lead to sealing his fate.

Looks like he’s been sent packing. Individualist? Not so much.

His situation reminds me of Survivor, the second half, when everyone from the loosing team kisses up to the winning team hoping against hope for a chance to stab them all in the back to win the prize.

The highlight reflections on the floor give the appearance of rigid boundaries, with a man walking down the middle, such as railroad tracks. Once we know the identity of the man, the question that come to mind is whether there is a third rail,and whether he will avoid it…

Paul: Good takeaway. It reminded me of this: The Picture that keeps on giving

Sorry, html gibberish.

‘keep it between the rails, boy
your White Lite ’s-a-commen!’

…Specter is flailing in the wind.
…Stesak will take him out in the primary or Ridge will clobber him in the general.
…He needed to understand that to become the Democratic Senator he actually had to …you know…support Democratic ideals and bills. Thus far he has failed miserably. He is on a lonely road as this photo shows.

“support Democratic ideals and bills”
In Congress, what you believe and what you say and what you vote often have but a passing acquaintance if that.
