Sorry, brain fart. I forgot about Boehner.. Yeah, he should definitely run for the Senate seat. If he's to become a Senator, theres no better opportunity than now. Bayah will never be weaker. Unless he has to vote on more Obama initiatives of course....

WASHINGTON On Wednesday, $12.7 million was an insurmountable barrier that insulated U.S. Sen. Evan Bayh from any kind of potent Republican challenge to his re-election this year.
By lunchtime Thursday, that mountain of money in Bayhs campaign account was a piffle.
The Supreme Court ruled that corporations can spend as much as they want $10 million, $20 million, even more to campaign for or against a candidate. It made Bayhs once-enviable stash of cash just one of many factoids a Republican might consider in evaluating a campaign instead of the major reason not to run.

This is another legacy seat, like the "Kennedy Seat". A Bayh has had it since the early '60s (first father Birch, then son Evan). The People are sick of legacies. They made this clear in '08, when the consensus was for no more Bushes or Clintons in the Presidency.
Bye-Bye-Bayh. Pause before saying the name.

Evan Bayh just asked Harry Reid if he could take his pro-Obama Health Care and Stimulus Package votes back. /s
To: Repeal 16-17
Republicans held this Senate seat for 18 years between the two Bayhs.

Pow! Pence will let Evan know what Birch felt like in 1980.
Is that 49 Senate seats now?

Evan Bayh is trailing? Just a few years ago, this was unthinkable in Indiana. I expect that Pence will make a decision sooner rather than later.

No executive experience, but he has been a talk show host and apparently learns from his mistakes. For instance, after proposing “U-Turn Amnesty” (requires illegal aliens to go back to their home countries and apply, but puts them in the front of the line when they return), he has signed on with the majority which want real enforcement first before any such new gimmicks are discussed.

Damn dude!
In 1980 Republicans beat 9 incumbent rat Senators. Only 12 since 1980 including the unelected Jean Carnahan. It’s a long time coming for rat senate incumbents to have a bad year.

If the Pubbies take over the Congress he will most likely become speaker of the house... Come on. If Speaker ten years down the road (maybe) is the only consideration, he should definitely go for the Senate.

That makes it 51 GOP seats.
To: Norman Bates
It is possible.
Washinton and Wiscosin could also become “in play”
