		<description>Vince:

One should not expect any American politician to act in any other way than his/her own best interest.  Bad idea to trust of any individual who is connected with the permanent political class.  If you really want term limits why not work for them.

The sad position in which Americans find themselves is the direct result of our political process having been rigged for the benefit of the few and to the detriment of the many.  The permanent political class will never allow a curtailment of their prerogatives unless there is direct citizen action.   

The Six Years and Out movement is the only possible way to bypass the obstacles that have stifled the will of the American majority for more than thirty years.  It requires no time or resources. There are no financial contributions to be made no meetings to attend no speeches to endure. A citizen need only make the following pledge to himself then spread the word to others. If you are fed up with pay-to-play government and the corruption of duopoly party rule, you should make the pledge.

Six Years and Out, The Pledge:   

With the recognition that there are huge numbers of intelligent, talented and qualified citizens who are prepared to limit their public service. I hereby pledge that I will not vote a second term for any United States Senator and no more three terms for any United States Congressman.</description>

Since 2006,speculationhas mounted that Hutchison would abandon her safe senate seat to take on Governor Rick Perry in the 2010 GOP Primary for Governor. Hutchison toyed with the idea of making a similar run in 2002 and 2006 and ultimately made neither race. This time,&lt;!--%kramer-post%--&gt;</description>
