I say help, because Bayh certainly has more gravitas than either Sibelius and McCaskill.
And better yet.... I mean, the yakuza cut off their little fingers as gestures of fealty, but Evan -- if we may still so call, er ...
Actually, Obama would be crazy to pick Bayh. Bayh is exactly the kind of DLC centrist that Lord Kos hates!
NOTE Second shot at this riff, sorry guys, and apologies to the trangendered community for introducing Bayh into the mix, if even notionally.

Um...
Well, just um....
Wouldn't a Sex Change
rob Bayh of the part of his anatomy that gives him his gravitas? Without that piece of equipment, you aren't so much serious as you are a shrill bitch. At least that's what Olbermann told me.
I know you're trying to propagate the riff and I appreciate the effort, but it's not working for me. Now, if you had a riff about how McCaskill, Sebelius and Bayh were boring or gray, that would work for me. Because they are.

Feeling dense tonight
I don't get it.
Although I always enjoy a good media concern trolling, a la "Will Globe Magazine's Obama Love Child Scandal Affect the Unwed Mother Vote?" (I won't link, but I saw the story in the grocery checkout tonight. Disclaimer: The Globe does not have whatever small reputation the Enquirer has for getting anything right).
I've utterly exhausted all my VP outrage (as BringItOn has kindly pointed out to me). Obama's trial balloon strategy worked -- Bayh is safe from me until it's official.
After all the crap we were fed about the evil of the DLC?
All that crashing the gate shit? This choice deserves every ounce of ridicule that can be heaped on it.

The irony burns.
I'm paralyzed between being embarrassed for the OFB
and crying for what might have been.
Too bad RL is even more personally dramatic for me at just now. I have two huge challenges, each demanding my highest spirits. I consider this particular demand by life as just plain rude at the moment. How refreshing to have you request the opposite from me.
Phew. Good thing someone highlighted the snark, I was
convinced that this post was in an ernest. Gullible is my middle name.
But, gee, wouldn't it be fun if it were true?! What a terrific way to keep this drug-induced rollercoaster ride otherwise known as the presidential campaign reaching ever newer heights of farce.
I love this job!
I love this job!
first of all...
but Evan — if we may still so call him
it should be "if we may still call her that.
and secondly,
She prefers Evalyn now.
BoG- i saw that too. and speaking for the heterogendered:
i'm deeply offended by this post on the part of the one i'm dating right now. Offended! do you hear me? evalyn is the absolute worst representative of that class of people, who are otherwise elegant, beautiful, interesting, cultured and creative. evalyn is none of those things. how dare you put down an entire group of people who are so much more than that soulless Villager wannabe!
the obama love child mag made me giggle. but they won't hit their stride till they show his white transgendered girlfriend who is the mother. and they will get there, trust me.
It's not working for me, either
Is the "funny" rap supposed to be that Bayh is such a p***y he's practically lactating, or what? Am I just missing some history here or what? I don't like Evan Bayh, but I like even less the "joke" that he's such a loser, he must actually be a woman.
I'm sorry. Feminists have no sense of humor, I know. But please tell me I'm interpeting this all wrong? Because I'm not getting it at all.
Don't Get It.
This has gone completely over my head, too. But, knowing Lambert, I must say that I don't suspect foul play, eitther.
But, we've always been at war with Eastasia...
