I'm in favor of anything that will sweep clean that Sacramento dung pile.

Me too. But I don't think this is it.
This is an excellent measure, supported by Tom McClintock and Ted Costa. Now, it's true that the GOP gets a few TOTALLY safe seats as a result of the Democrats' gerrymandering allllll the conservatives they can into those few GOP districts. But consider the cost. The same gerrymandering means that Democrats get 65% of the seats with only 55% of the vote. With all respect to Doolittle, that is too high a price to pay.
And the Doolittles of this world should look beyond their own fiefdoms and consider the larger picture, including state legislative seats. God forbid the GOP should have some competitive races -- in exchange for even more Democrats with current "safe seats" being forced to do the same!
