"Senators should be chosen by their state legislatures, with the specific purpose of serving the interests of their own state and no other."

I fail to see any advantages to shifting the decision-making away from the Washington swamp to the individual state swamps. If anything, the state levels are more corrupt than DC.

I think that is typically true.

However I could see going to a one and one.

One elected by the Peeps, the other serving at the pleasure of the State Legislature.
