WASHINGTON -- Popular Indiana Sen. Evan Bayh shocked the political world yesterday when he announced he won't run for re-election this year, saying he's fed up with Congress -- immediately sparking speculation the moderate heartland Democrat might challenge President Obama in 2012.
"To put it in words most Hoosiers can understand: I love working for the people of Indiana, I love helping our citizens make the most of their lives, but I do not love Congress," Bayh said in Indianapolis.
Bayh, who had been on Obama's short list for vice president, left the door open to all kinds of opportunities -- which could include a long-deferred dream of a presidential run.

Fox just interviewed Tamyra D’ippolito(D) who is close to getting enough signatures to run. We can only hope she ends up being the candidate for the DNC. Here are some of her most notable quotes: “tired of political politicians not representin’”; “there IS many issues”; “economy, education, and health care IS the 3 main issues”; “a lot of people that IS living in poverty” and one of her key platform issues.... we need more low income housing.
Oh man. Thanks a lot. It’s 6:30 on a gloomy, cold Tuesday morning, and I’m going to be forced to put on some AC/DC.
Which of course, cannot be played quietly.
Bayh and Rendell from PA are up to something.
Some additional dots to connect- I don’t fully understand what’s up with this, but another thread is reporting that some Lefty scheme might get borked by... another Leftist.
Too good to check: No-name lefty candidate may sneak in as Dems’ Indiana Senate nominee. HOP TO IT!

Is she Italian?
After only one year, his cool-aid drinkers are looking for a challanger within his own party.
Talk about your buyer's remorse.
Liberal.
Has Bayh exhibited suicidal ideation before?
No kidding. Like rats off a sinking ship.
I expect Hillary to jump ship any day now. You know she'll be at the front of the line to plunge the dagger into Obamalamadingdong's back when the time is right....
Sarah Palin "retires" because her administration is under such a withering attack they can't get anything done for Alaska so she is given no end of crap about "quitting".........
As if Hoosiers CAN'T understand what he has been saying. Sounds like this guy has a bad case of 'talking down-itis'.
LOL!
I’m afraid that sort of poor grammar is becoming so common that it won’t matter much longer. Even Rush Limbaugh misuses pronouns at times. Properly spoken English is becoming exceedingly rare.
“Just what we need in Washington, are a illiterate politician.”

Why hasn’t someone reworked this old classic? It is perfect for an anti-Obama parody.

You’re right. It is the NEWSPEAK. Yesterday I corrected my son and he broke out his new dictionary to prove me wrong. If it weren’t so sad it would have thought it funny.
