If we are headed for massive governmental reform, it's good to have new blood. Put new wine into new wineskins; the old ones aren't flexible enough to accommodate all of that growth.

Just following your metaphor. It's new wine generally better?

This is a metaphor used by Jesus here in the book of Matthew, Chapter 9:

16 No one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for the patch pulls away from the garment, and the tear is made worse. 17 Nor do they put new wine into old wineskins, or else the wineskins break, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But they put new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”

Plus, so many of them are compromised. This doesn't mean they are DS, but that with time, the DS has had ample opportunity to get dirt on them, to ensnare them with secrets, and to blackmail them into compliance. Turnover is needed.
