Actually, the one procedural thing that works in this state is the requirement for a budget to pass with a 2/3 vote rather than a simple majority. It has prevented the Democrats from enacting massive tax hikes that would wipe out what's left of the economy.
Do I think we would be better off without term limits? Possibly, but things are so bad now that we need drastic action to improve. We need to state to go BK, re-organize the debt and renegotiate all the union contracts. The only other option is a bailout from the feds and Republicans are never going to let that happen.
