One thing I'd like to address was a previous comment about term limits as this a double edged sword:

Without them you end up with Ted Kennedys and the like who are amazingly re-elected year after year. (mind you they are re-elected) Big problem is stupid voters who have not researched each vote. Ted is the only name they know and they pull the lever, then ***** about everything he helped pass (especially taxes) for the next four years.

With them you end up with a person who gets next to nothing accomplished in their last term cause their counterparts know they've got one foot out the door. Not to mention the rarity of actually getting someone decent that you can't keep in there.

Personally I would have loved another eight years of Reagan...
