Fighting the fever

by Bob Jones

Cover Story | The symptoms are unmistakable: Swollen ego, delusions of grandeur, loss of good judgment. The illness: Potomac fever, that dread disease of believing Washington has all the answers. The cure: Going home, building private businesses, creating jobs. In the post-impeachment days of disillusionment in Washington, three ex-senators report there is indeed life outside the D.C. Beltway.
