      The point of principles is to help you make practical decisions when convenience compels you to make impractical ones.

      And if everyone in the house voted only in line with their principles - nothing would change because nothing would pass.

      Of course legislation would pass. I vote according to principles, and I still vote yes most of the time.

          Non-controversial legislation probably true - tougher issues involves compromising principles, give and take #governing

          Actually, the suspension votes (generally considered most noncontroversial) are the ones where I often break from both parties.

          The problem isn't principles. It's that there's no incentive to be creative & propose 3rd ways. Everybody still gets paid if immobile.
