If the voters aren't "bright enough" to be trusted, why would you think a state legislature dominated by 'Rats would change things? We'd still have a Kennedy and Kerry to deal with...as Massofchumpsetts would never term limit those two bums.

In a 1-party state like Mass, the dems would attack each other for a chance to go to the "big show".
There's nothing that a socialist hates more than a socialist of a different stripe.
