That makes sense, I suppose. It also is why using the downvote for opinion instead of if it's a relevant post muddles the effect. There's no middle vote of, "sort of agree, but with conditions" arrow. Which is why adding comments, like you and BLHW did, is better than any arrow vote. Thanks for that.

I disagree on term limits. I do think too many in Congress are past their prime, maybe not just in age but in generational thinking of what's needed NOW. New blood, new ideas are needed. But for the few that can adapt with the needs of society, for them to be kicked out because of age or time in office solely because of a rule and not because of their abilities would be a loss. Granted, it's a few, but that's a few we can't afford to lose. If we can use the built in term limits of an election to remove the right ones, that's far better than a blanket law.

What would really be helpful too is a way to do a vote of no confidence. Analogy: If you're doing a poor job at work, the boss isn't going to wait until next hiring session to decide what to do with you, he lets you know first and then gets rid of the problem if there's no change.
