Seriously.  If administrators can be subject to mandatory retirement, why not legislators?  Neither seems particularly physically demanding, and both show similar degrees of required cogency.

Same reason that term limits don't fly.  Unconstitutional.

There would need to be competing agendas. "Moderate" Republicans agree with the party the majority of the time and don't always agree with each other.

Moderate rapublicans make me poke.

Those are demoncrats afraid to show theyre truth colours.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Who are you going to poke?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Doesn't the constitution set an age restriction on one bound?

Yes, and it would require an amendment to the Constitution to establish a bound at the other, IMO.

Usually I don't agree with Siege, but he's basically right; moderate Republicans, such as there are, are basically moderate Democrats.  And I sure as fuck don't want them in my party, either. <_<

Moderate Republicans are what mainstream Republicans were 10 years ago.

Yeah, well, Eugene V. Debs never got enough votes, so I take what I can get.

Maybe you should reflect on that when contemplating rejecting voters from the Democrats.  :P

That's certainly what the Democrats think when they dispute having anything to do with Ide.  He's a one-man "Democratic" party, distinct from the Democratic Party that actually does shit instead of just talking.
