Repeal the 17th Amendment! YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!
And while I wholeheartedly support that repeal, it does come with one condition.
Condition: The state legislature isn’t filled with the same corrupt, GOPe, RINO, UNIPARTY, Chamber of Commerce, Country Club Republican JV, Wannabe US Senators/Representatives POSs that will just appoint one of their own, who will be just as bad.
If I were to ask the Georgia legislature, I’m pretty confident the same person appointed would just be another RINO, Perdue, Chambliss, Isakson, Miller, Cleland. Corrupt to the core UNIPARTY hacks.
That’s the responsibility of the citizens of the state!
Maybe people would finally start taking who & why the vote for in the state legislature seriously. I am sure FR people do. However, it’s important to remember that FR in no way represents the voting demographic. Most people view voting for a state legislator as an afterthought. Something you do before you leave the voting booth, if you’re not in too much of a hurry.
Anyway, state legislators need to be term limited. That would immediately fragment the path to “professional politician”.
