Tear the band aid off, eh? Follow Ralph Nader's theory that letting it all go to hell is productive.
I complain about them, too. But, with few exceptions, MO voters are very conservative in the rural areas. Rural districts outnumber liberal leaning areas. The size of the House gives conservatives an edge.

Getting rid of the few Democrats we have will not make the voters more liberal.
