"This is a warning sign on so many levels, when people like Evan Bayh walk way rather than serve their country,"

This is wrong. The RATS exist to "serve their country to the enemies of this nation!"

Most politicians are narcissists who serve themselves and their ego, not their country. The term ‘public service’ has become irrelevant and ridiculous. Absolutely no one should ever be able to make a career out of elected office. No one. Ever. We would be better off picking Senators, Congressmen, Presidents, and essentially all elected officials at random from the general population than via the system we have now.

The Democrats have problems because they have become the party of hate and envy, despite pointing the finger at everyone else.
