Conservatives, many people will tell you, like authority. They like the idea of someone telling them what to do, lest society break down into chaos.

Name one.

What was Nancy Pelosi’s quote about how terrible it was to be against the government.

I'd put the anti-17th amendment crowd in that category (the founders wrote a clause back in the 1780s saying professional politicians should pick our Senators FOR us, therefore it MUST automatically be the ONLY way to run our Republic! If individuals are allowed to make that choice, our nation is DOOOOOOOOOMED!!!).

They also like to think their view is the majority view among conservatives, but I'd be surprised if 30% of conservatives agreed with them. (which is probably why Mark Levin never cites polls showing everyone agrees with him)
