It took them three whole paragraphs to mention Lyndon Baines Johnson in an article about political corruption??

I have nothing to say about this article other than that because it seems to me that the article itself didn't really say much. Thesis statement: "politics without backroom dealing would not be politics." Noted. Accepted. Done.

I'd like to modify your thesis. "Politics without backroom dealing is not an effective way to govern"

There are no effective ways to govern.
