PostPartisan - Bayh to Obama: take this job and shove it

Those who make the argument change takes time, PBO gets it, and is playing Jedi 3 dimensional chess, NOW are you ready to panic? Or at least come up with a strategy that works? Dang.

"On a more pragmatic view, Bayh’s dramatic vote of no-confidence in his own party’s leadership looks like another Massachusetts-sized political earthquake for the Democrats. Not only does it imperil the president’s short-term hopes of passing health care and other major legislation this year. It also makes it much more likely that the Republicans can pick up Bayh’s Senate seat in normally red Indiana and, with it, control of the Senate itself. If present trends continue, November could turn into a Republican rout."
