The House Reconfiguration Continues

Many of us for months have been advocating a complete turnover in the membership of the House and Senate - to let people uncorrupted by the ways of Washington government have a chance at serving - regardless of political party. On November 2 - 241 days from now - we will elect 435 members to the House and 36 to the Senate. A couple of faces in both bodies already are new.

Today we learn that yet another seat will be filled by someone new. NY Congressman Eric Massa stepped down, effective Monday. He already had said he would not run again, but now we know there'll be someone new in his seat - maybe someone now and another someone in November.

On April 13th, the 19th District in Florida (mine) is electing someone new. In November, it will repeated.

We have so many opportunities to get better representation that we've had in a long time. Let's vote them out and usher in a new Congress.

You know people talk about term limits this and that. The term limits are the voters. I agree with you vote them out . That will limit their terms

Charlie,

And the nice thing about voting them out is that they won't have time to prepare for it. :)

I like the re-election every two years but I still favor term limits on all of them.

I think it's just wonderful that our representatives in government can 'retire' after a few years and take home their reelection campaign 'war chests' full of money!  What a system!  Ya think they care about 'term limits'?  Best retirement system (and life-time free health care) in the world!  They work hard- just like you and me...-Steve

John,

Term limits would impact how people vote. I want a new Congress but not sure limits are the way to go. :)
