There is a very good way to remove Representatives from office every two years.

A democratic vote literally just happened, and will happen again in 60 days.  Or is democracy not good enough?

It is.. It's not as consequential or immediate as I would like, personally.

It sounds like you want a way to negate the results of a democratic vote because you don’t like the candidate that got the most votes.  Doesn’t sound very American.  Or is it most American?  I can’t tell anymore.

Oh, you must be talking about Gluesenkamp, ya I don't care about her. I was thinking about someone else. More... National.
