The announcement yesterday by Indiana, Democratic Senator Evan Bayh that he is not going to run for the Senate in November confirms our (and the majority of people in this country) that Congress is in a dysfunctional mode of operations - do we all know that!

We agree with Senator Bayh that Congress is not making much progress in addressing the major issues facing our country. However, when the going gets tough - the tough get going. They don’t walk away from a challenge. Also disturbing is that Senator Bayh made his announcement just four days before the deadline for candidates to register and gather the required signatures to run for his Senate seat in November

Is this another one of those back room political moves? It does not appear to us this is being done the right way.
