why would you ever offer the same political class the opportunity to rewrite the rules to meet their preferences?

Because the federal political class is not involved in a Convention of the States.

Shutting Washington totally out of the picture improves the convention environment substantially.

I guess post 78 applies to you too.

I suggest you read the Federal Convention debate. Those delegates of the States exceeded their authorized powers too. There was a poison pill in the Constitution about which they did nothing, likely called by our creditors, as Hamilton offered the snow job to cover it.

And you think such a likelihood like that or worse isn't in the offing now?
