Not really. No one wikipedian could really effect something with that much inertia. With admins picking up increaseing control RFA is one of the last ways none admins can really infulence the project. Realisticaly you are looking at a cold dead hands situation if you want to remove it.
Exactly why it needs to be removed now before it becomes completely entrenched. First we started getting people who wanted adminship to have control, and now they have adminship, and are taking control. We should have stopped this a year ago, but we weren't paying attention, and now we have a lot of bad admins to show for it.
I occasionally think about running for bureaucrat, but realize that by doing so I would be implicitly supporting the RfA system, which I have grave objections to and which I think should be reformed or eliminated entirely.

That was, um, what, seven months ago? My attitudes have changed rather significantly since then, as have those of the project.
