Politicians suck, I think everyone realizes that.
But I'm curious, is the argument here that career politicians pander, so they'll stay in power?
On the flip, term limits would somehow cure this because limited terms would produce focused politicians who have no reason to pander thus they are magically more honest and convicted in a good way?
The reality is politicians will always do what benefits them, regardless on any term limit or not. Hell I think limits might make things worse, if there is no real accountability except for perhaps in the case of criminal actions, people could be a whole lot cavalier. Who knows though, it might just ultimately be refreshing to have politicians who actually acted and spoke their mind.
