"who will abolish tenure?"

Your point is valid of course. Abolishing tenure will not be easy nor is it on the immediate horizon. But in the spirit of being optimistic one must not overlook the impact the alumni can have. Further, if we could ever elect a truly conservative majority to the Congress, that Congress could simply make abolition of tenure a condition for an institution to receive federal grants. That would pretty much do it in a flash.
