Fair point, and not one I've considered. I mean, the Republicans have always had their useless shows of support for doomed "small government" measures (somebody always introduces a doomed bill to kill the IRS or the Dept of Education or something), so I'm not sure that'd work for me. Perhaps such a measure getting the majority of the elected Republican caucus that was up for reelection in any given cycle. Or a large number of insurgent Tea Partiers getting elected to federal rep slots in 2010. What "a large number" is, I'm not certain. It's honestly not something I'd thought about.
