Although I have to say that while I'm sure that at least all Senators are the sort of politician you describe--well-meaning, perhaps a bit out of touch, etc.--Representatives can make for some highly entertaining/horrifying news. Some are just scumbags. Granted, in a body of 435 you're going to get some scumbags.
Now, with regard to state legislature, no. There are a ton of greedy and ignorant fools in the state system. I dare you to come and witness the Louisiana legislature.
