If one of my boys was asking me if they should go into politics, I'd say there's only one reason to go into public life and that's to help people.

My first meeting as a senator, my first day, they were already talking about the next election. Part of that's the permanent campaign, part of that's a word I've been using more frequently, 'tribal.' Our politics has become tribal: It's us versus them.

I'm pleased to offer analysis of public policy and politics to the millions of Americans who get their news from Fox.
