How about this instead ... we pick a high-karma HN'er from each district and elect them. At least we could expect some logic (I hope).

The 2010 election is famous for electing a huge number of close-minded people to the House of Representatives. You see, it is your very "anti-incumbent" mindset that has gotten us to where we are today.
HALF the moderate Blue Dog Democrats were voted out of office in 2010. And need I remind you about the rise of the Tea Party in 2010?
Congress is deadlocked today because close-minded individuals destroyed the moderates. Proven Moderates were voted out of office, and American became more extremist from the 2010 elections, and 2012 elections. We need to work together, find the moderates in Congress and reward them for their efforts.
Blindly attacking incumbents is how we got into this problem in the first place. Continuing the dumb, ignorant, "head in the sand" approach will lead to our ruin in the long term.
Stupid voting is stupid voting. Don't vote against the incumbent unless you've done your research.

Why can't Representatives get together and hash out a deal? (Even within the Republican Party, they failed to pass a bill this week at all). Maybe... all of the dumb newbies don't know how, they don't have the bipartisan connections that were utterly destroyed as all of the moderates were voted out of office in 2010.
