Really? Because California has term limits, and they're a bright shining example of economic and political disaster at the moment. That tells me that term limits is no "magic bullet" to fix all of our ills or to even check the slide towards disaster, if that's even what's going on.

Tennessee also has term limits, but it hasn't really put an end to the "good ole boy network" since family members are often elected or people rotating between positions.

I guess I really have no idea what you want to discuss or if you just want to rant. If its the former, please elaborate. If its the latter, it's probably better off as a blog post.
