so they're kind of grabbing onto it now saying, let's do it better. we owe the american people that. that's a true view of policy, but it's also expedient because nancy pelosi herself had said this congress under her leadership would be the most ethical. she sort of put this out there as a standard that might have even been higher than people's normal expectations, and if there is something there for them to go after, they're certainly doing it aggressively, keeping that alive and trying to connect her to these eric massa allegations and saying she should have known. >> go to 30,000 feet here, because it does seem as if each time a political party in the last 20 years has lost control of congress, it's been the ethical issues that put it over the top, right? you have the check bouncing scandal of '92 which led to some shenaniga shenaniga shenanigans. are democrats extra sensitive to this?
