Thread Name: BS: Republican response to Health Reform
Subject: RE: BS: Republican response to Health Reform
There was a time that both of my Senators, John Glenn and Howard Metzenbaum, had the highest progressive rating in the Senate and got elected for term after term. I wouldn't have traded them in for anyone. What possible purpose would term limits serve. Presidential term limits did not exist until Republicans pushed them through in reaction to FDR being elected 4 times. It was also Republicans who wanted to get rid of them so we could have 4 more years of Reagan. Now if you want to talk about campaign finance reform we might be on to something.
