2. Does anyone know a good lobbyist?

3. Umm, isn't that bribery?
I'm pretty sure it's illegal to pay for votes. In fact, I'm certain that it is.

4. No one proposed paying for votes

I proposed donating money to the one who stands up and filibusters, after the fact. Nothing illegal about that at all.
