I'm a reluctant convert to term limits. However, there is evidently a flaw in the system. Incumbents always win. At least often enough to prove there's an institutional and (in my opinion) unhealthy bias. Only way I can see around an institutional bias is an institutional check on it.

Not sure what your point is with slick. He's a walking billboard for term limits. You seem to be contradicting yourself with that one.

As far as needing a Constitutional amendment, I'm not sure SCOTUS has ruled definitively that states can't set them for themselves. Are you?

Term limits is the panacea of the stupid and lazy.

As far a me being a "campaign reform" geek, you couldn't be farther off. I think it a travesty for the Senate to be wasting 2 whole weeks on this dangerous nonsense.
