Anti-Incumbent movement is having positive effect.

The objective of Vote Out Incumbents Democracy is to force Congress to act more responsibly as representatives of the American people, present and future, as well as in their role as caretakers of our nation. It isn't much, but, it is something positive to see the U.S. Senate unanimously pass a bill depriving themselves of another pay raise this year. The bill still needs to pass the House, but, the prospect is looking good. The Washington Post has the low-down.

If we keep expressing our disappointment in their performance, and back it up with our votes for challengers instead of incumbents, we leave them no choice but to accept that our votes can't be bought for anything less than responsible governance and representation of the common interests of the American people.
