I've often wondered about the same thing...the perception that Congress as a whole sux, but "my Congressman is a good guy/gal, and my Congressman fights for what is right....its those other bullies that sour the milk".
I am afraid that it may take an intervention of some sort to put things back on track....like an attack, be it physical, diplomatic, or financial, against the United States as a wholef. The attacks on 9/11/2001 are an example, although I pray that it isn't that type of attack that unites us, Dems, Repubs, Indepenents, Libertarians together to fight against a common enemy. I guess a parallel would be brothers and sisters who squabble amongst themseves until someonme outside the family attacks one of them - at which time the siblings lay aside their differences and band together to deal with the outside threat.
