This is my exact words that I said upon hearing on the radio that Indiana Senator Evan Bayh is retiring. I have a bunch of respect for Evan Bayh. He is a moderate-conservative Democrat. I have only once heard him operate as a blind partisan for the sake of turning screws on his partisan enemies. Most other times he has been a reasonable and pragmatic elected official who called it like he saw it.
This is a tremendous loss for the moderate section of the Democratic Party.
(I can think of several other senators [on both extremes] who I hope will retire)
WSJ: Indiana's Bayh to Retire From Senate
“Take Back The Black Community Consciousness". It has been hijacked by embedded operatives who don't intend to develop the COMPETENCIES within. We once controlled this consciousness, focusing our activism directly upon our permanent interests. Today the "Malcolm X Political Football Game" has us as starters and some believe that this playing time translates into absolute progress for our people. My goal is to hold our permanent interests in their faces, forcing them to explain their actions.

I would like to see your list of needed retirements.
He was good for the state of Indiana. I voted for him as Governor. And yes, I do believe this to be a significant loss for the party. But something tells me he has aspiraitons of running for President so he's not done.
