Believe it or not, each House of Congress is guarenteed under the Constitution to set their own rules. Each House could enacted their own term limits and refuse to seat elected representatives! However, the last time that was done, the year started with "17".

There is a great book on term limits written by George Will.

That's the one (written back in the early 90s) that got me hyped on the idea.
