I like Evan Bayh, but I see this as an act of TRUE DESPERATION on the part of the Indiana Democratic Party.
The NATIONAL Democratic Party literally HATES this guy. The Nutjob Left ran him out of DC on a rail, if you will recall. He didn’t toe the Academic Socialist Party Line.
The “D” candidate was floundering, and Todd Young was cruising to an easy win. Bayh brings in a whole new dimension. He and Manchin will likely form the “Not Insane Democrats Caucus”.
I like both Bayh and Manchin. Reasonable people, but you’re right, the Left hates them.
He supported-gasp! abortion reform! That's Democrat Party Heresy! Burn the witch. [er, warlock, I guess]
