Term limits, like campaign finance 'reform', stifles free speech, once again proving Conservatives LOVE big gubmint, so long as it's THEIR big gubmint.

We already have term limits - it's called election day. Just because you don't get your way doesn't mean you can stomp and snort and try to change the rules. Well, that is, so long as you're not a dummycrat.

Term limits actually don’t stifle free speech, they stifle the political class.

When the populous was few in number, term limits were a bad idea. There are plenty of qualified individuals who cannot break thru in a primary due to the 2 party system propping itself up with funding of its candidates.
