Bill Paxon's announcement that he's leaving politics when his term ends, so shocks the pundits that some of them (O'Beirne, Al Hunt on Capital Gang ) accept his advertised reason--the standard Washington lie that he wants to spend more time with his family.
This came as a shock, because Paxon was viewed as an ambitious fellow with a long career ahead of him.
The result was a lot of scheming by people such as Paxon who suddenly had an opportunity to get ahead quickly.
So reluctant were reporters to call Paxon a prevaricator that most of them waited a decent interval--a few paragraphs--before reporting the apparent reason for Paxon's resignation: His challenge to Majority Leader Dick Armey was doomed and he faced a career as a Republican backbencher, a fate the ambitious pol apparently couldn't face.
In a way, the collapse of conservative principles in Congress only heightens the mystery of why Bill Paxon quit.
