While I understand that Evan Bayh's positions are "mixed" and that he has worked extensively as a lobbyist since leaving the Senate, his return to the Senate would help shore up the Democratic party's ranks.
I respected his father, Birch Bayh, quite a bit. Somewhere I have the letter that Birch Bayh wrote me when I sent him a letter in my early teens.
Indiana has had an interesting political history. The KKK had a HUGE presence in southern Indiana in the 1930s.
They generally vote Republican for national offices, but there have been a number of Democratic politicians that have done extremely well in Indiana.
They are a little small minded sometimes, but there is a lot of genuine heart.
It is the state that raised me, for better and for worse.
Intelligence must become self-conscious, realise its own power, and, on a global scale, transcending functions that are no longer appropriate, dare to exercise it. History will not overthrow national governments; it will outflank them. The cultural revolt is the necessary underpinning, the passionate substructure of a new order of things. — Alexander Trocchi
