Ummmm... yeah... right...

Okay, so, let me try to follow this -- IF we let local state party hacks pick our U.S. Senators FOR us (God knows they did such a great job with Lisa Murcowski, John Barrasso, Frank Lautenberg, John Warner, eh?), somehow, in your convoluted thought process, this will lead to us picking better Presidential candidates in the completely unrelated topic of presidential primary races.

I dunno what you've been smoking, but it's definitely not legal.

Or perhaps you're really warped and you'd like to see our President appointed FOR us as well. Can't let the little people have any say in who their candidate is. Miss the good ol' days of Jerry Ford, eh?

Rather than making infantile accusations of drug abuse, consider my pathetic senators and especially your pathetic senators. One of your senators sells the nation out on a daily basis, and the other one just might be the next President and get us all killed.

So before you rant on posters for illegal drug use because you haven’t bothered considering the option that a GOP-controlled legislature as in my state or others just might do a better job than say the city of Detroit in electing them in the first place, and removing them as well.

These senators are perpetually re-elected and use that power base to screw the nation on one hand and on the other utilize that same pulpit as a launching pad for presidential runs among the masses of the ignorant, see McCain.

You don’t have to agree since the people in your state are so much smarter than the rest of the country, after all they after think having Durbin and Obama is a good thing. At least here there would be the removal of uber-entrenched Levin under that scenerio.
