Oh, come now.
If “amass(ing) not a single significant accomplishment” makes one ineligible for high national office, what the hell is Zero doing at the head of the Demonicrat Party?
I presume Zero has to find someone to run with Himself, but the potential running mates are taking themselves out, voluntarily and involuntarily, at an alarming rate. Maybe they know something?
A couple of weeks ago, the buzz was that a Republican female was being considered, I don’t remember her name. But at the rate Zero is going, he may have to select a Whig or a Tory or a Know Nothing as running mate. Now that would be appropriate!

A pundit mr Sirota is not.Political prognostications from those who are
big sky people tend to be as expansive as their horizons and could
benifit from a dollop of humility.

No offense, but your knowledge of Evan Bayh seems to be limited. Yes he has made some questionable decisions as Senator, like voting for the Iraq war. But as someone who lives in Indiana I happen to remember his time as governor which you seem to have left out. He was one of the most successful and popular governors in state history.
You say he has no accomplishments. I say producing the largest taxcut in state history, going 8 years without raising taxes, creating the largest budget surplus in the state’s history, passing measures that improved the school systems, and created 350k jobs during his tenure are pretty nice accomplishments. As a Democrat in a largely Republican state, he has been elected statewide 4 times. His bid for reelection as Gov. saw him receive the highest percentage statewide vote in history and he left office with an 80% approval rating. Running for Senator he has yet to receive less than 62% of the vote.
You trying to compare making a few campaign stops for Clinton to being on the ticket is also laughable. The Bayh name is gold in Indiana and having him on the ticket would easily assure Obama of Indiana. I live in the rural southern parts of Indiana where Obama couldn’t muster 30% of the vote. Yet, even in these areas if you go around talking to people who generally would tell you they won’t vote Obama and don’t trust him would vote if Bayh was on the ticket. If for no other reason than they think he is a great politician and would make a great President.

Please Mr. Sirota:
Stop it with (1) the ad hominem attacks and (2) the gossip style of journalism.
I hope you are well.
