A series of full-page ads in eight papers across Missouri will call for term-limits over the weekend, calling Sen. Claire McCaskill (D., Mo.) the "poster-child" for why they're needed.
The conservative group running the ads, Missouri Rising Action, points to the fact that McCaskill's first run for political office came in 1982. McCaskill has been a member of the U.S. Senate since 2007 and is currently running for a third term in office.
"After running for political office for 36 years, Claire McCaskill is the perfect example of why we need term limits in Washington," said Brian Rogers, the group's executive director. "You can't change Washington by electing the same people over and over again—that's why it's vital to term limit Claire McCaskill this November."
The ad, which can be viewed here, hits McCaskill for "decades of liberal votes" and "years of self-enrichment."
This has been a recurring push by Missouri Rising Action, which earlier this month sent the same message in a TV ad.

Agree. Too long. However, the Government has employees who have been in the same job for just as long. Only difference - Congress keeps it's health insurance for free in retirement to include family members. Must stop. Maybe then Congress will think harder on health reform.
