Being from Massachusetts, that is one terrifying thought.

The "citizens" here gave the nation Kerry and Kennedy, I shudder to think of who the inbred elite nitwits in our legislature would deliver.

You shudder to think what the system envisioned by the Founding Fathers would deliver?

One point you're missing is that the State Legislatures are far less important than they were pre-17th. If it was repealed, the makeup of the legislatures would be different. Remember, there was a time in American history when being a state senator was more important than being a congressman.

If we were under the old system, Kevin White and Billy Bulger would be senators for life. - tom

Hopefully, they'll give us two ineffectual lightweights like J F'ing Kerrey. Teddy 'the swimmer' Kennedy has done a lot of damage.
