This is a big battle they do not afford to lose. Their defeat will wrest from them power to dictate people's life by subverting democratic process. Their idea is thinly disguised as a counterweight to mindless mobs. However, if you examine issues at stake, in many cases, it is they who ram their agendas to the populace and eliminate any counterweight to challenge them.
