Personally, I would very much like to see recall laws subjected to some pretty strenuous Constitutional judging. I get the feeling that the ability to pull governors out of office, without their ever having committed a crime and strictly for narrow partisan gain, was never, ever, ever part of the intent of the Framers.

You don't want to be able to pull a governer if he's an incompetant oaf? I think people should have that power, how it is disrespectful towards the ability to put them into office in the first place is beyond me.
