2 years for Reps, 4 for President and 6 for Senate. Wanna take a bet on how many of those scum suckers win reelection in Nov? I'll take 90%+ and be right every time ... and that's with the public saying they don't even think their own guy should return.

    - Fewer gerrymandered electorates would give candidates more incentive to appeal to the centre to win the election, and less to skew hard to the right - Roger More Feb 17, 11:10 3
      - Of course, I'd just as soon do away qith geographic delineations of congressional districts altogether. - znufrii Feb 17, 11:11 2
