and how much damage can he do in the mean time? I don't say make it a show of hands and out he or she goes, but recall is a deterrent. It would only cause chaos for the first 1 or 2 times, than politicians would start thinking twice. It's a helluva lot easier bringing people to a special election than miraculously lengthening their attention spans...
Less damage then would be done if we were having recall elections all the time. National climates change all the time. If you made it so much easier to recall people whenever the national climate shifted you'd have recall elections in the competitive districts all the time. It's not a good thing.
