George Washington set the stage for correct terms of political office when he refused the "king-like" status after the Revolutionary War. He knew that true power corrupts. That's exactly why there should be strict term limits of 2 terms of 4 years for "all" state and federal offices. Who knows ... maybe less than that. But to get these morons to vote on it themselves is as ridiculous as them voting on their own pay raises. I even have a suggestion to save taxpayer's money in elections from these "sacred cow incumbents". Where an incumbent is within a "recount" margin of 1/2%, I think that the incumbent should lose. Why? Because I think that is a clear sign from the people they want a new guy (or gal)in there. I say this despite the fact I think Al Franken is an idiot. The reason I say this is because it seems we have not progressed far enough in this country where we can count ballots properly. Probably because of our pathetic government education these same incumbents are so damned determined is working so well for our children.
