Evan Bayh Needs to Be Bitch-Slapped (Literally)

Evan Bayh has been a Senator since 1999. Which means that he spent many years having the GOP run roughshod over him, doing whatever they wanted. Hell, Bush even came out and said after his re-election that he had a "mandate" to do whatever the fuck he wanted. And now, after all those years, Bayh is a member of the party that controls the House, the Senate, AND the White House. So Bayh has decided that instead of using this advantage to move along legislation that could actually be representative of his and his party's ideology, he should probably step back and make doing these things as difficult as possible, what with his Blue Dog "moderate coalition" nonsense. I guess it's important to him to be able to help the party that the American people voted OUT of power and since has come up with absolutely nothing remotely resembling the direction that himself, his political party or, based on every poll I've seen, the American people would like to be going in. This is like competing with another gentleman for a lady's romantic affections, and after dueling courtships she decides she wants to be with you and not the other guy, but you say to her "well hold on now; did you know he writes poetry?"

Maybe Bayh is simply a masochist; maybe he's compelled to get bitch-slapped as much as possible? If that's the case, I guess the solution would be for him to date Chris Brown. Anytime he's about to make a move with his fellow blue dogs, he can sit in a car with Chris Brown, until Brown gets pissed off cause Harry Reid is trying to text Evan and beats the living shit out of him. Bayh's need for abuse therein sated, he can get back to doing sensible things like not getting in the way of progressive changes that can retard the hurtling of this country into the shitter, maybe? Just spitballing, here.
