It wouldn't be a horrible idea if districts were drawn by a nonpartisan commission (ideally with an expanded House).
However, doing this in states like Michigan and Pennsylvania is nothing but a shameless attempt at a power-grab. I'd have to wonder how much individual Congressmen would support this. This could easily nationalize races that may not otherwise have been, like those in the Philly suburbs. I can't imagine Meehan or Fitzpatrick would have wanted the Obama ground game in their districts.
