Great point. Hopefully the GOP can hold the line in the Senate and let the Democrats shoot themselves in the circular firing squad.

Don’t rain on the parade. These schmucks would have voted with Obo regardless. Bayh knew he would lose and didn’t want the humiliation. He can always ride to the rescue during a more socialistic election year.

Indiana is heavy on medicine, and medical instruments. He SCREWED them. I figured this would happen.

Their internal polling must be held very secretly and must be off the charts against any Dem voting like Pelosi, especially in the conservative Midwest like Indiana.

The other thread (now pulled) claimed that Bayh stated that Republican Opposition was too much to overcome.

So are they jumping ship because they’re in trouble or are they jumping ship because they expect the emperor to do something really crazy?

“I smell a bloodbath in November.”

So do I and the Democrats have no stomach for the kind of backlash that is coming their way.

If they retire, then they can stay in Washington as lobbyist. If not, and they lose... They are done. Thus, why we see so many senators leaving.

They know obama and his administration is going to come crashing down eventually and they want no part of it.
