I think it would be great if a retiring Republican Senator would start a campaign to return the right to elect Senators to the individual state governments as a way to reduce corruption in the federal government.

Ideally, that lame-duck Senator would offer zesty, detailed criticism of the corruption that our current system has wrought — starting with Dirty Harry and all of Harry’s illegally “raised” millions.

It needs to be someone whom Harry could not “punish”...

In my political daydream the senator is Ted Cruz. He delivers an hour long anti-17th speech laced with quips from The Federalist, the afternoon The Hildebeast announces her candidacy. Rip the shrew off the front page, or at least compete with her, and force the rats to defend a horribly corrupted senate. To possibly save our republic, he encourages state legislatures to grasp the power they once had. Oh well.
