It's a democracy. We have built in term limits. They're called
elections. ;-) You know, if we do our part, and keep a close eye on the
*******s, they have to do their part.


Actually the guy in office gets paid mailings, lots of face time on the
media, so a built in step up to getting reelected. And here in California,
they have gerrymandered the election districts so that there is almost no
change in the legislators. And the Legislature is much more liberal than
the state as a whole is. We have finally during the last election voted to
have an "independent" group do the boundry setting. The Santa Clara
district that Pete McCloskey and Ed Schau represented, included most of
silicon valley and then a 2 mile wide strip over highway 152 to include
Livingston. A hundred miles away. We do have term limits for state
legislators in Calif.
