One term limits would make elected politicians immediate lame-ducks. Why would they worry about reelection consequences for their unpopular actions?
Further, I don't think our current president is the greatest example to illustrate your point. Has Obama seemed overly concerned about doing unpopular things during his stay in the White House? Do you think he would be less inclined to act in such a fashion if he knew he'd only have the job until 2012?
