Voters should be the judge. Term limits have been a dissaster in Florida. They replaced good old boy corruption with hip young hot corruption. Is that really what we want? There's no institutional memory in the legislature but there is deep well of expertise in farming Republicans in the ad agencies, real estate lobby blobs, and corporations like Chevron who fund our local representatives while supplying gas to foreign dictators.

It needs to be eight years period or it is just a break once in a while. They can hold office as many years as they want as long as they take a break every two terms.
