I don't know about that, Rd3. I think many of them are psychopaths with no conscience. But I also thing some of them, if not many of them, do run for public office with good intentions. The problem is when they get back there they are powerless to do any good. The only way to do anything is to become like the system. Corrupt. Those who can't take it get out. Those who can, stay in and milk the system for what they can get out of it.
And a third category of those with various depravities who are compromised and blackmailed for their entire careers. For instance, where is Lindsay Graham's wife? Come on, at least have a beard of a girlfriend? One of the bedrock foundations of the Republican Party is closeted, compromised sexual deviants like this.
Most of them are born scumbags and practice their art on the way up, at the local and state level, before they make it to the big leagues.
