More bad news for the Dems. The Obama-Jimmy Carter comparisons might actually become justified if Bayh decides to run in 2012, just as Teddy Kennedy ran against Carter back in '80. If it rattled the party back then, this time it would probably put it out of its misery.

I am so disgusted with the Democratic party right now that I'm actually leaning towards registering as an Independent. Hell, my political views lean both left and right, anyway, depending on the situation, so I may as well register that way .
