If people are really willing to buck the status quo they should also then be willing to vote out their sitting representatives and/or Senator.

I'm sure that you're just as aware as I am that only the nerdiest of political wonks pay much attention to to rep. and senate races (generally speaking). So, I would caution anyone from holding out any hope what-so-ever that interesting change would come from either. Basically with our governmental structure interesting change will only come either from the bottom up (the masses in outright revolution) or the top down (a radical chief executive). Certainly not the absolute quagmire clusterfuck shithole middle of the houses.
And as it currently looks the only interesting game in town is Donald "Grab 'em by the pussy" Trump. As depressing as that is.
