Yuh, but if the people want to reelect them, that is their option.
Actually term limits are a buffer against the ignorance of voters.
Incumbents are usually always going to have the advantage in elections .. and they gain that advantage by doing "favors" while in office. Those favors are often at the expense of the constituents. Running for office in America takes way too much money to do and incumbents spend much of their time in office currying favor/money to stay in office.
Term limits are a good idea in my opinion .. and obvioulsy it WAS a good idea to New Yorkers.
