Term Limits would make the problem worse, as the Lobbyists would have even more power. The Old Lobbyists would remain and the 'Newbies' of Congress would be like Sheep to the slaughter.
The 'Newbies' would need a job soon after they left Congress, and the Lobbyists would be there to promise them a job (For a Price).
Most of the Problem in Congress is the Influence of Money. And Term Limits only exacerbates this.
The Term Limits idea is a Perfect Example of: "Every Complex Problem has a Simple Solution that won't work"
