Yeah, That Ought To Fix U.S. Elections...So To Speak

Carter and Baker
Former President Jimmy Carter and former Secretary of State James A. Baker III announced yesterday that they will co-chair a Commission on Federal Election Reform to examine the state of America's federal elections and recommend improvements.
Mr. Carter and Mr. Baker have assembled a private, bipartisan commission whose membership includes former Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle, former House Minority Leader Bob Michel, former U.S. Reps. Lee H. Hamilton and Susan Molinari, university presidents, scholars and community leaders.
The Center for Democracy and Election Management at American University will organize the work of the commission, in association with the James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy at Rice University, the Carter Center and electionline.org, a national clearinghouse of election reform information sponsored by the Pew Charitable Trusts.

So the Democrats are represented by the most liberal U.S. President ever, the most partisan Senate Majority leader ever (ACU Lifetime Rating: 13), solid Lefty Lee Hamilton (1993 ACU rating: 29), plus reliably leftwing "university presidents, scholara, and community leaders."

Meanwhile, the GOP fields Jim Baker, perpetual loser Bob Michel (ACU lifetime rating: 84), and Susan Molinari (ACU lifetime rating: 72).

You'll excuse me for predicting that Carter and the other lefty ideologues have already won this one.
