Term limits are the worst idea ever. Besides taking away my right to vote whom I want, it will make DC exponentially less efficient and more corrupt than it is today. If there is constant turnover, even less will get done as people will no relationships with anyone but donors. If you aren't independently wealthy and willing to spend your own money, you will have to kowtow to donors, PACs and interest groups. They will need the money and bodies to get elected and fill out their term limits.
It will also mean Members will be looking for their next job from the day they take office. Many (probably most) will be open to the highest bidder. '
Term limits is like so many RW ideas. They are bumper stickers that sound good until you try to make them happen.
I'm not saying 2 year terms...I'm saying somewhere in between 4 years and eternity.
