We had this happen in Oregon's Governor race.
Kitzhaber(D) served his 2 terms, as limited by law,
and then Kullongoski(D) served his 2 terms.
Kitzhaber won another 2-terms in 2010.
What good 2-term limit does is beyond me...
except to effectively do away with institutional memory.
The first term usually gets used up training elected officials how the
government actually works, not how they think it works.
