Bayh Bayh

Maybe a Republican will win his seat, but at least it'll be someone you can rely on for something.

Sen. Evan Bayh (D-IN) has never shown either the intellect or the courage of his father, Birch Bayh, who actually dragged Ted Kennedy to safety from a plane crash they were in together, who lost his own Senate seat to Dan (yep!) Quayle in the 1980 Republican sweep election that seemed to spook his son for life.

Enough of the media kissing Evan's ass for being s supposed "centrist." That means a Democrat who let the Bush Administration roll right over them, and who declares he's retiring from the Senate due to partisanship as if it's somehow balanced.

This when the Republicans appear they won't even vote for the Debt Commission they asked for -- not when President Obama actually puts it into action.

Per John Cole a year ago:

I really don’t understand how bipartisanship is ever going to work when one of the parties is insane. Imagine trying to negotiate an agreement on dinner plans with your date, and you suggest Italian and she states her preference would be a meal of tire rims and anthrax. If you can figure out a way to split the difference there and find a meal you will both enjoy, you can probably figure out how bipartisanship is going to work the next few years.

Don't be bamboozled.
