It depends what you think the job of an elected representative is; someone you elect to represent your interests, or somebody you give carte blanche to do anything they like - even if you utterly despise it - and claim to be doing it in your name.

In parties as in parliament, the supposed theory is that they are our *servants*, there to serve our wishes, needs and interests.

If we forget this then we end up working hard to support people who are doing things we fundamentally oppose, and we end up morally bankrupt.

as in;

>blair is so in charge of his party in spite of the fact >that so many of them hate him

Concentrations of power will alwys corrupt those who it vests the power in. The problem is not in who is the leader, but the fact of there being a leader at all.
