I am real curious why if he was up 20 points in the polls, he would resign? I will watch the news conference with an open mind. Still is good to see he go. Surely the GOP can put up a better candidate than a has been Coats.
Bye, Bayh!
This is the best news of the millenium so far.
If no one qualifies, a candidate is selected by party caucus.
IC 3-13-1-3
United States Senator or state office
Sec. 3. Except as provided in IC 3-10-8-7, a candidate vacancy for United States Senator or a state office shall be filled by the state committee of the political party.
...until he announces for the Presidency.
He sounded pretty pissed at congress for all the arguing and forgetting that they serve the people and not themselves.
Consensus prediction: Brad Ellsworth will run for Bayh seat, John Gregg for Ellsworth seat.
