Les Miles, Washington Politicians and Complacency

I was watching the Georgia, Georgia Tech game and Georgia did a fake field goal where the holder taps the ball on the ground and then flips it over his shoulder blindly to the kicker who is running down the left side. It was strangely reminiscent of the ones Les Miles tried in his earlier years.
It made me think about how Les has gotten more conservative as the years roll on and less willing to take chances.
I see a parallel in many Washington politicians. We elect them based on their promises to go in a shake up the system, and at first, they might try. But slowly, they look around at the perks of the job, free meals, chauffeurs, associates to do their bidding, and they get comfortable. This makes them not so eager to stir the pot, but instead to join the good ole boy network.
Unless some type of term limit system is founded, human nature, greed and complacency will always gobble up even the most promising candidates.
