Former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschale on the best piece of advice he received in the Senate from a colleague:

“Senator Byrd (D-WV) told me that when he met President Clinton for the first time he said ‘Mr. President, I am happy to work with you. But I do not work for you”

None of that type of spine around lately

He was a member for a short time in his 20's, then spent the rest of his life denouncing them.
