"As a former legislator, I know that it is sometimes hard to know what the best policy is and how to balance competing policy values. But it is always a good policy for the legislature to follow the plain, common sense language of the state’s constitution, and it is always bad policy to disregard it. When our fundamental, supreme governing law ceases to be just that, then we are in trouble."
Democrats "unenthusiastic" just like in 1996

I think that the Tennessee Plan should not be renewed and that its renewal would be likely to instigate or awaken persons' displeasure with those who supporting it. This could translate into much energy being spent campaigning against those of either party who support it.
I agree . . . the TN Plan is amazingly elitist and anti-democratic, and a majority of average Tennesseans are opposed to the selection and retention process, but many legislators need to feel the heat before they see the light.
P.C., please visit bettercourtsfortennessee.org .
