At Congressional Career Day, Rs told it's time to suck up.

(HUFFPO) - A closed-door panel of defeated and retiring members, including Katherine Harris, R-Fla.; Clay Shaw, R-Fla.; Mike Bilirakis, R-Fla.; Anne Northup, R-Ky.; J.D. Hayworth, R-Ariz.; and Ed Case, D-Hawaii, turned up in the Longworth Building on Tuesday for a career advice panel called "Life After Congress."

"The main idea is you're making the transition between being the grovelee versus the groveler," said former Appropriations Chairman Bob Livingston, who now helms his own lobbying shop. "Before you were a Democrat or Republican. Now you are bipartisan beyond belief."

Sounds like great advice, former Appropriations Chairman Bob Livingston. Can't be a grovelee forever, huh?
