I’d recommend you take a look at a Zeteo interview of two Congress members who stood against them. It can be more complex than straight bribery.

For one thing, taking money from AIPAC isn’t just about greed; it’s also about using that money to campaign and help people be aware of what issues they’re fighting for. (Yes, I’m aware for some, it’s all about power and greed)
For another, AIPAC money can become an enemy: These Congress members got an army of mailings demonizing them as soon as they voted against an issue Israel wanted in their corner. They were voted out of office, and never got to pass the causes they wanted for their communities.
Should they take AIPAC money? Absolutely not. Do I see why they’d take it? Absolutely.
