They're not winning once, they're winning every election. You want to circumvent democracy and force people out after an arbitrary amount of time rather than let the voters decide.

No. I want the voters to decide democratically if they want to counter the incumbent advantage to combat ineffectual and unrepresentative lifelong politicians. If it sucks, we can repeal it in X years.

Voters decide if they want to counter incumbent advantage by... voting for someone else. Not by imposing term limits and removing the ability to continue voting for that person.

Right. Just so we are both clear that the incumbent advantage renders many votes moot by means of institutionalized advantage.
