Subject: So, Evan Bayh may be onto something


So, I'm watching the news yesterday where Evan Bayh says that he wants out
of the Senate because they're not doing anything.  Dems vote 91% on party
lines, Repubs have threatened fillibuster 100 times....40 times more than
their previous high.  

HIs solution is to replace all the senate....which would be fine w/me.  But
the more I got to thinking about it, the more I realized it wouldn't change
a thing.  I consider myself more or less a centrist.  There are things from
the R's that I'd like to see get done and there are things from the D's that
I'd like to see get done.  The problem is, I'm more frightened of the
radical wing of the R's than the radical wing of the D's.  So when I go to
the polling station, all other things equal and knowing how much party line
plays into things, I'll check the D box.  

I have a feeling that many people are this same way.  I just don't see a
valid centrist third party as an option because it seems in order to
organize like that you really need to be passionate about an issue....

What's your take?
