I suppose it would on the surface..but some part of the explanation for why the GOP has turned into a bunch of creepy fuckers is that they are beholden to the seat capturing scheme. The same would be true of democrats using the same scheme.
Let's put it into context, with just one part of the scheme. Telling dumdums what they want to hear. Obama told everyone they could keep their doctors. How'd that work out? Is there some great idea somewhere doing well by the application of the republican model?
Or hey..hey, maybe the dems should suppress votes? I;m sure that voter suppression could be the springboard to countless great things.
