But Washington is a tough town, and the way I view it is there's a lot of entrenched special interests there, people who are one side of the issue or another, and they spend enormous sums of money and they convince different senators to tout their way, or different congressmen to talk about their issue, and they dig in.

我认为能在华盛顿混还真不容易呢。那里遍布很多各种特殊利益集团，各为自己的或他人赞同的政见服务。他们花费大量金钱，说服那些参议员支持他们的意见，或争取那些众议员讨论他们的提案。他们真是无孔不入呀。
