Yes, although mostly in DC. Not that it much matters for the DLC gig.

That’s what I meant.
Another “inside the beltway job” for someone “from” Tennessee.

Well, Congressmen build a network and skill set that’s mostly useful in the Beltway. Having a lot of contacts in Washington doesn’t really do you much good in Memphis.
