   The recall process is designed to remove representatives who have been   
   considered suspect in certain situations or otherwise did something   
   clearly illegal.  It's not there to remove representatives who did their   
   job legally and honestly, just not to the liking of some people.   
      
   Democrats don't like Democracy--they never have.  They don't like   
   majority rule either.  It's their way, or the highway.   
      
   If this push is successful, then we live in tyranny of the unions and   
   any other group that misuses the system.  And that would be all the more   
   reason to get rid of all unions in this country.  And if successful, it   
   would outrage many Americans who would support the extermination of   
   unions.  They've done enough damage to this country already.
