    Interesting how abortion has completely upended the midterms and seems to have almost shot the republicans in the foot, turning the elections from a sure-fire win to a 50-50 chance of them retaking the senate and house.

    Retirement in the senate is always an important issue that most people usually overlook

    It is interesting to compare how long senators can serve in the US compared to other countries. For example, In Canada, senators have a mandatory retirement age of 75. A lot of our senators would no longer be serving if this were true here in the US.

    So true! The power of incumbency is hard to deny. . . but it shouldn't be. On the other hand, it does take a while to learn how to be an effective lawmaker, so I am not a fan of short term limits.
