Evan Bayh - Combining respect for the Constitution with Proven National Defense Stewardship

Seen on Drudge: "Dem '08 Hopeful Bayh: Electoral College should be eliminated."

If Evan Bayh wants to be president, he's knows he's going to need a lot more votes than he's gonna get, and in a lot more than one Indiana-like (conservative) state.

So ditching a major provision of the Constitution doesn't bother him, no sir. The Democratic Party will not rest until it has eliminated every last vestige of the Old Republic, thus resorting to the manipulation of the masses to regain power.

On the lighter side, in the article in the Raleigh-Durham News-Observer which featured a Q&A segment, Bayh was asked how a Democrat gets elected in GOP-leaning Indiana. It included this statement:

"I reach out to all the citizens of our state and let them know that I care about them and their values. I am not an aloof figure, I hope. Finally, they have to know when they go to bed at night [that] you can be a good steward of our national security. Too many people think, nationally, that the Democrats are weak and can't be trusted on that. I don't think that is true. We have to let them know we are capable on that issue."

We had no idea the governor of Indiana had such powers. Thank God, Bayh is our national defense steward and not those halfwits in Washington.
