IMO, we already have term limits. They are called elections. I, for one, am very happy with my congressman, US Senator, and POTUS.
With all due respect coralway, this is a major part of our problem, especially in the case of the house. They have to run every two years, they are in the district campaigning constantly instead of doing the business in DC they were hired to do, and they bring home the pork, thus "I like my congressman/woman, it is all the others that are the problem". Well they are all a part of the same problem and if everyone likes his/her guy/gal, then we get these career politicians who's main purpose is to perpetuate their job.
