Bingo!

The good folks of Indiana need to reture this clown and replace him with a pro-American politician.

This is truly funny. I can just imagine the Moveon ("we own the Democratic Party") crowd now: "we didn't like John Kerry, but we supported him because we were told he was 'electable.' Even with a stupid hideous chimp opponent -- the worst president in the history of the country -- the 'electable' choice couldn't win. This time we will not make the same mistake. We will vote with our heart. Howard Dean or Dennis Kucinich. Period."

What are the chances of the "we own the Democratic Party" crowd voting with their head again?

Not to mention his "moderate" record on abortion -- the Now gang and their allies will make his life miserable. And then, he will "compromise" his views so as to win more of their support. And then he will be a FLIP FLOPPER.

He will be valuable, however, in attacking the She Devil.

"...Clinton, but he's a bit Gore too...."

Not a strong selling point. I wouldn't brag. Heh, heh, heh...

And this was a man reported to be a "conservative" governor in the state of Indiana.

They would take anyone that they thought would win, that was the whole rational behind Kerry, and they managed to shush the leftists then. Remember Dean?

They would nominate Henry Ford himself if they thought he would get the votes. The party would control him. They are communists, for crying out loud.

Have you seen the new "Class Warfare" Agitprop movement that is developing: The NYT times "Class Matters" series or this new "www.one.org" Aids/poverty "movement." Their commercials started last night.

There will be wave upon wave of this sort of thing starting now and building to the election. At first it will be "nonpartisan," but in 07 they will put faces behind that rhetoric, and they shall make Health, jobs, globalism and jobs the cutting edge of this socialist onslaught.. Bayh will be one of those faces.

They will find ready takers in the population. Perhaps not enough, but they will be there.

BY 08 there will be so many manufactured scandals, so many knotted lies on the tip of the public's tongue, that it will be almost impossible to say anything rational in the media.

This wave of agitprop will be like nothing we have ever seen in American politics: A sort of high tech, media savvy propaganda machine aimed at "the masses" straight out of the Third Reich's play book. It will amaze even those of us that follow these sort of things and have watch the Democrats for decades, and it will have plenty of foreign money and influence, the major portion of which will not be from EU socialists.

It will be something to behold. The filibuster/Bolton business is just a minor flanking action - a distant rumbling of what is to come.

If they can crowd Hillie out it will be something like a Bayh/Richardson ticket. It will be a challenge to beat them. The GOP and the conservative movement needs to start responding to all of this nonsense NOW!

One gets the feeling that the left think that they did not start early enough and were not manipulative enough in the last election cycle. They now see that they have to deeply con the voters, not just intimidate them or lie in their faces at the last minute.

A few months ago we hear a notion of "new and revolutionary' uses of media to "reach the people" out of folks like Ickes and Soros. I imagine that this "One campaign" is the beginning of this. I expect media coordination the goes far beyond what we have seen so far.

Never underestimate these people, I say. They are immoral, not stupid, and they have a passionate zealotry.

They also know that their backs are against the wall, that this might be their last chance.

Another 8 years of a real GOP majority and all of the lies about why we "need" government will start to fall apart. There will be little to scare Americans with. Added to that, the structural changes that will destroy the liberal Establishment's power bases and the very real potential that illegal behavior in the Democrat Party will be discovered and prosecuted just gives them more urgency.

Solid gains in 06 on the Hill and a GOP presidential win that is ideological level with Bush could well mean as radical realignment of American politics as the New Deal once was, perhaps more radical as we are in a much more established position as a nation than we were in the 1930's. America could run so far ahead of the world that the lefts allure fades to even the dullest eye. The establishment left knows this all too well.

As I have said before: Remember, the Democrat Party survived being on the wrong side in the Civil War and yet came to dominate America for a half a century."

Never turn your back on them for a second.

This country will not be save until these people are exposed for what they are, their power structure destroyed and their access to government curtailed for good.

It will require a response to the coming onslaught that is a well coordinated and as deep pocketed as it is.

The GOP were up to last year, let us hope that they are not taken by surprise this time.

Bayh has won and still wins elections for two reasons: First name recognition and second that fact the the Republican Party has not put up a real good opponent to run against him in any election.

If he is ever forced to deal with his DC liberalism and back home conservatism hypocracy straight up he would get bounced harder then a Rawlings Basketball in a farmers driveway on a Saturday afternoon.

Well I hope so. I still think that the GOP has to push forward not just their vision for the future but start calling the Democrat party out for what they are: Totalitalian International Socialists.

They might try thowing a few in jail too.

They have to be unmasked in public and decried by the GOP leadership from the public square.

Yes, Bush is right to tackle real issues and make reaql proposals, but it is not enough.

their will be structural economic problems in the next 3 and a half years. Bush's sane, rational and relaistic approach to such matter assures this. The Left will capitalize on it.

The right must tackle tis notion of "equlity" with the notion of Liberty.

We must overturn the rhetoric of the 1960's: It must be a case of the values of Libery and Excellence overshadowing the culture of "Equality" and Mediocrity.

Sooner or later the truth behind the Democrats must be put on the table.

Bayh's republican opponent in 88 was even more of a bore than Bayh. He has run ever since as a moderate to conservative.
The dems will never choose him as their nominee.
Not to speak ill of my fellow hoosiers but a lot of people voted for him because of his looks.
