Go Pence Go!!!!!!!! As a conservative, I always liked Bayh. I always thought that he was one of the more reasonable Democrats. I was wrong. I was hoping that he would come out on the side of reason and the people in the healthcare debate. Alas, he did not. Pence is a winner in every category - an all around great candidate. I hope he runs. Let the race begin. I don’t live in Indiana, but I would certainly donate to his campaign.

As I understand it, the jackasses will be running to “beat the Bushes” again, so to speak (sorry - I just couldn’t help that one!). I can only hope so, because all the hopey-changey airheads will be out in force for their own favorite causes, which by-and-large leave most ignorant voters cold and at home.

You are right, USN, this is a different year, but only because the people on the right are paying attention and are fired up. Whether that “fire-up” is maintained remains to be seen, but hopefully Duh-1 will maintain his push to take over the country for his own designs and we, the people, will push back even harder.

Word in the news is that focus in D.C. will now shift to inadequate “jobs” bills, with the emphasis on creating or saving government welfare jobs (”service” jobs, according to the jackasses). I hope so, because that’s the single most obvious place to cut in the budget and the one that will keep the economy in the pits the entire year. By election day, if that is their plan, we, the people, will be so fed up with such cronyism and waste that even Michelle the queen may vote against whoever the donks have running in Chicago…

Carlos, in an ordinary year I would agree with you, that American’s political memory is not only short, but that Americans’ political attitudes are often vapid, ambivalent, or apathetic.

However, this is not an ordinary year. America is waking up to how easily our political freedom, and our right to live our own life, can be taken from them by an over reaching, nosey and intrusive government that seem to think we can be treated like children , and no one will really care.

Voters have incredibly short memories, something along the lifetime of a gnat. It will be Pence’s job, should he decide to run, to keep hammering at those Bayh votes, and how much pork was in them that he was willing to go along with, and that the health reform bills passed had nothing to do with reining in the cost of health care to the average American. He also might want to bring up that Bayh was totally against switching his own health care package generously allowed by the government to a reasonable one just like most people in this country get with a good job. And another thing he might hammer away at is what kind of retirement “pension” benefit Mr. Bayh will get.

Yes, I know Mr. Pence will be eligible for the pension and the health care perks, too, but at least he’ll have a leg to stand on in “spitting into the wind” in trying to get them changed.

How dare the arrogancia of the Congress believe that, just because of position, they are entitled to raid the treasury like that!
