5. I'm extremely grateful for Sarbanes.
He really gets the job done, and he is so principled, including on issues where it would be easy to cave to get political cover.

I saw Sarbanes at Rep. Chris Van Hollen's post-swearing-in reception, and it seemed Sarbanes was ready to fight. He's generally pretty mild-mannered but wondered aloud why we didn't boo at a mention of Tom DeLay's name!

Van Hollen is another good egg, by the way. I hope he serves a good long time and have high hopes that maybe someday he will move on to even more prominent positions.
