They will be more politicized..and more unruly.
This a good idea and probably will be implemented the next time Democrats are in power. I am not so sure the current problems are so much a result of the system or even the Democrats. We have a Republican problem. The Senate leadership has ample power and the tools necessary to impose discipline on their members, they just lack the will to use them. Committee chairman have adequate authority to control their committees but seem to buy into this idea that you must be fair to everyone. I don’t know why it is so difficult for Republicans to understand that politics is not about being fair to your opponent but about governing. Can’t they come to grips with the fact that you dare not try to be fair with a rattlesnake; he will bite you and his bite will kill you. That is just their nature, much like Democrats
