[edit] Completely Dominated Roman Politics

It is clear that Pompey, Caesar, and Crassus had a significant impact on Roman politics. However, there needed to be citations for complete domination, because as I understand it, Cato the Younger, Cicero, Clodius, and much of the Roman Senate was able to resist them at many points. I'm not saying that it is wrong, I'm just saying that references and citations are needed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.151.23.173 (talk • contribs)

[edit] Crassus' reasons for joining the Triumvirate?

First off, the article dosn't say why the three men joined, or their reasoning behind it. We know that Caesar wanted dignitas and respect, and Pompey wanted the Senate to give his troops land that he had previously promised them, but why did Crassus join? It was something about passing an insurance bill or something like that, right? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.172.94.171 (talk) 02:21, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
