I refuse to make a "Bayh" pun.
Politics and Policy
Well! Evan Bayh is not running for reelection. I can't say I was ever really a fan - he really comes across as a petulant child a lot of the time - but this is pretty bad for the Democrats. Here's some coverage:
Bayh's Retirement (The Atlantic)
Evan Bayh to Retire (The Fix)
Evan Bayh Will Not Seek Reelection (Indy Star)
Bayh Decides Against Reelection Bid (NYT)
Evan Bayh to Retire (Politico)
Evan Bayh Will Retire from Senate (Salon)
Evan Bayh to Retire (Swampland)
Holy Crap (TPM)
Evan Bayh Quits (Windy)
Evan Bayh to Retire (Yglesias)
And a few tweets:
Ezra Klein: "Apparently, Evan Bayh wants to spend more time scolding his family for moving too far to the left."
Spencer Ackerman has the only pun that made me giggle: "KTHXBAYH"
