BRACK: One-time bugaboo of term limits now seems good idea

BRACK: One-time bugaboo of term limits now seems good idea

By Elliott Brack | It’s funny what makes you change your mind.

All these years I have been against term limits for elected officials. My reason: having old-timers around who knew the ropes made our government better by their insights. But one incident recently made me change my mind on the subject. Now I feel comfortable for being positive on limiting public officials’ terms of office.
