You know its going bad for Democrats when the New York Times is advocating ending midterm elections!

I’m sure you’ll all be shocked to learn that this isn’t actually the NYT advocating the end of mid-terms, but rather an op-ed piece by a Duke University professor and a student.

And unlike some papers, cough The Washington Moonie Times cough, the NYT runs op-eds from a variety of viewpoints. They even carry David effing Brooks.

But conservatives have not shown a reluctance to amend the Constitution to get the policy results they have failed to achieve by other means. So not sure why someone making this electoral argument is somehow beyond the pale.
