57. I'm divided a bit myself on term limits

I think it might be prudent to have at least an age cap. McConnell, Grassley, and a few others should be enjoying their remaining years sitting on their front porches, drinking bourbon, and making farting noises at their neighbors, rather than on the national stage. I admired Diane Feinstein but she far exceeded her expiration date. Capacity to serve is a relevant attribute, I'm just not certain how we define that.
