Why spend campaign money to lose an election? It’s best to take the cash right now and let someone else lose.

"For some time, I have had a growing conviction that Congress is not operating as it should. There is too much partisanship and not enough progress... "For some time..." I'd say it's been since Nov. 5, 2000, when Al Gore told George Bush not to get "snippy" about his rescinding of his conceding the election of 2000.

In other words, Bayh was sick and tired of having to toe the Dem party line. I wonder what sort of stuff they had on him to blackmail him for his DeathCare vote?

Centrist Heavyweight? Since when?
Disturbed by the partisanship in Washington? The DIMs have owned both a majority, and for the last year, a super-majority in the congress since 2006. Partisanship aside, the DIMs have only themselves to blame for not passing legislation, the Repubs have been castrated for years.
Another article made a good point. The DIMs have been blatently spending billions and billions of taxpayer dollars, pushing through 'stimulus' and partisan projects for the last year that have only served to make the economy worse. Faced with an almost lynch-mob-like backlash from the voters, the RATs are abandoning ship in droves in an attempt to hold to some shred of their political careers.

Evan quits because Republican’s grow a backbone and in turn sets the stage for Republican’s to secure another senate seat.
It really doesn’t get much better than this.

Maybe he voted for it anyway? Sometimes it’s hard to tell who is who.

Another long time family seat. First the Kennedys, and now the Bayhs.
With his tearful wife and two sons at his side, Bayh, 54, expressed disenchantment
Just think, those two sons might have been future senators if Evan Bayh hadn't been forced to quit.

What’s happening on the Rat side is about as close as we have to a “no confidence” vote on the leadership in this country.

"does it seem odd to anyone else that so many dems are dropping out...??...maybe they have something up their sleeves...then again maybe they really do see the writing on the wall...."At first I thought it was odd that they continually pushed their agenda, against the peoples wishes, because they had something up their sleeve and didn't care.
However, after VA, NJ, MA, and even NY (although we didn't win) I think they saw the writing on the wall. I wish they'd ALL "retire"!

......Bayh, 54......
Time to cash in and live the good life.

...and White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel tried to convince Bayh to run again Yeah, I'm sure that went well... LOL!
"Evan, you're an f-ing retard if you don't want to run again!"
To: NormsRevenge
AFP = France's version of the AP thinks Bayh is centrist heavyweight. Okay, that settles it. /s
So why did the little wimp QUIT (in re: Sarah Palin) and whine about partisanship as if that is new in DC?!
