Governor McDonnell comes out for ending gubernatorial term limits

It is pretty hard to find any discussions by Virginia's new Governor, Robert McDonnell, when he ran for Governor about ending Virginia's term limit for governor. At best it was hardly at the top of his list of goals during the campaign.

Robert F. McDonnell hasn't served a day as Virginia's chief executive, but the governor-elect already says he will work to overturn a Virginia law forbidding governors from serving consecutive terms. . . .

None of these stories had any mentions of McDonnell trying to end term limits last year.
