The delegates to any Constitutional Convention will be made up of politicians. The thought of opening up the Constitution to the Pelosis and Reids and McConnells and Boehners of the world to “fix” it scares the hell out of me.

The members of the original convention and the state convetion were the politicians of the day (a much wiser lot, mind you). There will definitely be politics involved in choosing the delegates, as there was then. It will be battled out in the legislative chambers. This is how we do things in republican governments.
And it would be, in many cases, those idiots from the state level. The only thing this would accomplish in my state (Mass) is that they would be out of state for a while.
At least it won't be Pelosi, Reid, McConnell, or Boehner. They are constitutionally prohibited as long as they hold their current offices.
