There are elected offices where political party is not stated or utilized. Sure, you can have a conservative candidate and liberal candidate, but at least someone in an elected office won't feel that they "owe" the party anything for being there.
The way it stands now, the appointed Attorney General feels an obligation to the President and the party he represents, which is a huge conflict of interest.
If it were a Republican taking bribes from online poker sites, or if it were Republicans in charge of the VA during that scandal, you had better believe Holder would have been all over those investigations.
