Horrible idea, only in conservativeland can concentrating power into fewer hands result in something other than greater tyranny. These are politicians we are talking about after all, why anyone would want take away power we the people have and put it in their greedy hands?Revoking the 17th won't work.
Article III bedrocks the foundation of judicial review.
The Constitution would have to be amended.
There is just one reason why Republicans want to repeal the 17 th amendment. They can no longer win the Senate through the popular vote......but they do control the state legislatures
Better to have those Republican legislatures select senators
