Was thinking about this after it looks like Steve Scalise may become speaker. This has to be just nationally and from Louisiana. To hard if we are doing state politics.

Are you talking about the Top 5 politicians who knew how to get things done or the Top 5 politicians who just knew how to politic?

I edited my stuff after I sent it.
Let’s stick to elected officials at the national level.

Admittedly the bar isn’t very high but I vaguely remember Tom Ed McHughand Dave Treen weren’t bad.

Billy Tauzin was pretty good until his term ended and became a lobbyist, for Big Pharma of all corporations. He has since moved into other industries too.
Richard Baker good too until became a lobbyist himself. Talk snakes in the grass.

What he really got done was stealing from the people of Plaquemines and St. Bernard Parishes.
