Even then they wouldn’t be worse than what we have now!
I bet all your Texas examples have been in office forever. It behooves us to pay attention to who we put in the legislature. More than two terms it’s time to send them home!

The legislature is the government closest to us and the one where we have the best chance influencing. It’s up to us, we don’t make the effort someone else will to our detriment!

I’ve analyzed this proposal many times. It’s been brought up by many on FR over the years. Sadly, it would manage to be worse than what we have now (and yes, that is possible to be worse - far worse). The last thing you want is political Derp State hacks choosing your elected officials. Especially my state legislators (House & Senate), both of whom are Communists. I have literally zero input with them.

I'm in favor of a Constitutional Amendment that would allow either a majority of the States voters or a majority of a State Legislature to force a recall Election of a Senator in a State.
