Does anyone else agree that we need to abolish the Senate?

[Stoic]

I'm serious. The Senate was introduced by the wealthy, elitist "founding fathers" to keep a check on those Dirty Fucking Hippies(tm) also known as the citizenry to protect the rich and wealthy from the excesses of "the mob" (read your Federalist and anti-Federalist Papers). While it's true that a Democratic majority in the Senate kept the Republican majority in the House in check, it also kept the Republican excesses from frightening the voters who would have more quickly turned out the bastards.

Even if the Democrats gain a majority in the Senate, perhaps that magical number 60, does anyone think there won't still be enough Corporate Democrats and DINOs still left to monkey-wrench our attempts to turn back the clock on the last 12 years?

I think it was John Adams who expected a Constitutional Convention every 20 years or so until we fine tuned the Constitution and got the damned think right.

I think it's time we stopped a handful of rich old men (and women) from getting in our way to fixing one of the most corrupt political systems that has ever existed on this planet.
