    Term Limits on Debbie?: (none / 0) (#6)
    by Kevin Rex Heine on Sun Jul 24, 2011 at 08:14:40 PM EST
    . . . at least that's what Article 2, Section 10 of the Michigan Constitution says:

    § 10 Limitations on terms of office of members of the United States House of Representatives and United States Senate from Michigan.

    No person shall be elected to office as representative in the United States House of Representatives more than three times during any twelve year period.  No person shall be elected to office as senator in the United States Senate more than two times during any twenty-four year period.  Any person appointed or elected to fill a vacancy in the United States House of Representatives or the United States Senate for a period greater than one half of a term of such office, shall be considered to have been elected to serve one time in that office for purposes of this section.  This limitation on the number of times a person shall be elected to office shall apply to terms of office beginning on or after January 1, 1993.

    The people of Michigan hereby state their support for the aforementioned term limits for members of the United States House of Representatives and United States Senate and instruct their public officials to use their best efforts to attain such a limit nationwide.

    So it would seem that Debbie the Dangerously Incompetent shouldn't be on the ballot in 2012.  Not sayin', just sayin'.
