Bayh Criticizes 'Ultraliberal' Leanings After GOP Upset
Tuesday's political shocker in Massachusetts is bringing harsh criticism from Indiana Sen. Evan Bayh, who some say is now vulnerable.

"If you lose Massachusetts, if it's not a wake-up call, there's no hope of waking up," he said Wednesday.

Without mentioning the president or congressional leaders by name, Bayh on Wednesday sharply criticized the Democrats' attempt to push what he called an ultraliberal program.

"The only way we're able to govern successfully in this country is by liberals or progressives making common cause with independents and moderates," he said. "Whenever you have just the furthest left elements in the Democratic Party attempting to impose their will on the rest of the country, that's not going to work too well."

And isn't pressed for one.

5. how are liberals imposing their will? how are they having their way with you, Evan?
honestly.

he's still upset because he lost the vp slot on Hillary's ticket. why? because... oh, what's his name... Jackson? Anyway, the democrats in Indiana threw behind Obama and left Evan out in right field, claiming Nelson is in any way moderate when he attempts to roll back health care rights for women.

6. Says the corrupt "little lord of Indiana" who undercuts his own nation at every turn

as evidenced right here with his use of Republican memes.

Sorry, weak entitled little men- sons of far more principled fathers have proven to be far great enemies to human progress over the years than most Republican nutter style folks.

If you read classic literature (that's stood the test of time) you'll see why. Not really that hard- a lot of it's on CD to listen to now and almost all is free for the read).

Characters like Evan Bayh permeate struggles throughout history.
