Yep.

Two terms, nothing after age 65.

I'm thinking 6 terms for reps, 2 terms for senators(also making them state appointed once again)
and the 3 term president.

all 12 years max. So if a senator is in office 6 years and then elected president he can only serve as president for 6 more years.

It says: Reid's platform was power. The 71-year-old one-time boxer touted his ability to bring federal money to his home state - no one could do more, he argued - and played up his role salvaging the Las Vegas Strip's massive CityCenter development, in which he pressured bankers to keep money flowing, and his hand in killing the Yucca Mountain nuclear dump. He had the backing of the powerful casino industry, and the union members who work in them.

So if the best the right could do was Angle and you hold Angle in contempt, what does that say about Reid that Reid had to use promises of pork and earmarks and rely on gamblers and union racketeers to win?

You're shooting yourself in the foot here. Use the "best the opponents could do" argument when you win a landslide. When you win a squeaker, that argument is damning yourself with faint praise. It's like saying Charlie Manson wasn't so bad, at least he didn't eat the people he murdered like Jeffrey Dahmer did.

Sounds like John Murtha. The most corrupt scumbag ever to grace Washington and in true moonbat fashion when he died the used pork to make a bronze statue of the guy.
