I ran across a very good history on this topic written by Richard Locker of the Memphis Commercial Appeal that you can read on your PC or on your mobile device.

Are Judges so corrupt as a class that they, alone of all the Republic's functionaries, must be protected from the slightest chance to sell themselves?

I'm ashamed for my profession that every lawyer and every Judge doesn't demand free elections.

Perennial candidate and gadfly John Jay Hooker as your hero of the movement? Are you serious?

To paraphrase an old saying: With an enemy like him, who needs to bother with friends?

(I'm sure realize that your take on this issue puts you in league with all sorts of so-called conservative organizations -- Tennessee Right to Life and the Tennessee Family Action Council, for example -- as well as some of the more rabid conservative activists in East Tennessee.)

I like reading your posts (I've actually had your blog in my feed for some time now, but you couldn't be more wrong about this subject.

You didn't offer anything but an ad hominem slur on John Jay and me and a conclusory statement that I am wrong.
