    <description>I'm better than your current Senators -- unfortunately, I'm too honest for Congress!  Instead, I decided it's more fun to have a podcast dedicated to being the 101st Senator in the United States.  Educational, informative, not bought and paid by anyone -- doing this for myself and the country.  Long-time political watcher -- you will be smarter for listening to me.  </description>
