Senator Evan Bayh - Hoosier Liberal

Today, for the second time in a row, the Senate voted to confirm a George W. Bush nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court. Also today, for the second time in a row, Senator Evan Bayh, Democrat from Indiana, voted “No.”

To my fellow Hoosiers: Please see Evan Bayh for what he is – a liberal democrat who has fought against the conservative cause at every turn. He likes to portray himself as a moderate who stands for “Hoosier Values.” That’s just a façade. It’s pure deception, and the people of Indiana have been deceived by this man long enough.

Bayh is going to attempt to get the Democratic nomination for President in 2008. I don’t think he’ll get it, but if he does, we need to make sure that he becomes another Democratic candidate who does not win his own state. If he is not elected President, he’ll want to remain in the Senate. In that case, it will be time to vote this liberal out of office and to elect someone who will truly represents “Hoosier values.”
