Age Limit for Congress Members?

Seeing as many members of Congress are in their golden years, is it maybe time to impose an age limit for how long they can run? There is already a minimum age so why not put a maximum age, say 70 years old for example? If you are in a position of Congress and turn 70 while during your term, you can still finish out your term but then cannot run any longer beyond that. I know that age affects everyone differently but there have been a few members in the Senate as well as the House who have been seen to be less than fit to continue making decisions for the United States and I think putting a age cap on these career politicians would be beneficial to the country as a whole!
