Is this the most Albini way ever to just say "we are starting our tour"?

If Albini ran for government he’d be in the pockets of lobbyists within a month

the guy has avoided gouging the bands he’s produced his entire career, he’s about as ethical and transparent in his business practices as it gets, and he’s suddenly going to be on the take? why?

the more likely hypothetical outcome is he is stymied while in, then flushed out of office.

But we've never seen such a thing in modern politics.

i don't know why i took the bait on this hypothetical other than self-hatred. but i'm halfway in, so i'll continue.

i'm assuming part of bodysnatcher's claim is that the strictures on efficacy in political office are mostly if not entirely a function of lobbyists and their benefactors. i agree. steve agrees. steve hasn't run for office and likely wouldn't because of this fact we all agree on. so why make the piercingly stupid hypothetical?
