The bestidea coming out of Sacramento these days is actually coming from the Bay Area, where a group of business leaders wants tocall a constitutional convention to revamp California's government.
The governance equivalent of a quintuple bypass anddeep brain stimulation surgery performed at the same time, a constitutionalconvention is a notion that should send shivers down the spine of anyreasonable person.
It slicesopen the body politic and exposes its vital organs to all sorts of poking andprodding.
Scary stuff.
On theother hand, what do we have to lose?
