And please, please, please! I do *NOT* need reminding that we're probably going to send the Corporatist Evan Bayh back to Washington.
I've told you why Obama's 08 voters didn't turn out. Sheesh!

Hehe. Bayh voted to save the economy and for the PPACA. Good enough for me. ;-)

And Bayh's "Credit Card Reform" allowed BofA to jack my rate from 9.0% fixed to 12% floating.

So, get another bank. You are still able to do that.
E.g. https://www.nerdwallet.com/credit-cards There's a whole lot wrong with our banking system that needs to be fixed. The GOP isn't going to fix it though. They want to control the Fed, they want to gut the little regulation that exists, they want to kill the CFPB. Courier Press: The senator said he received nearly 500 letters and e-mails from Hoosiers about how credit card companies had mistreated them. Yeah, it would have been better to defeat the bill!!1 Bayh was the crucial vote!!11 (Groucho-roll-eyes.gif) You know the right way to vote. Stop letting the perfect be the enemy of the good. Vote Candidate in the Primary, Vote the Party in the General. Come join us! ;-) Cheers, Scott. |

Bayh's NOT going to fix the banks, see below.

You and the Banksters want him to win.
Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, is currently the top Democrat on the panel and widely considered the next in line for the chair if his party succeeds in retaking the chamber. http://www.americanbanker.com/news/law-regulation/could-bank-friendly-bayh-seize-chair-of-banking-committee-1090616-1.html But hey, you liked trillions to banksters in the form of TARP, so the possibility of a Bankster Tool as head of the Senate Banking Committee is a *good* thing, amirite? Omnes relinquite spes, o vos intrantes. |

Recycled "news"
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2013-04-04/banks-prefer-schumer-over-sherrod-brown-for-panel-chair The Senate flipped so it became moot. We'll see what happens, but I don't expect Sherrod to roll over if he wants the job. Cheers, Scott. |

If Bayh wins and the Senate goes "D", ...
the owners of the Senate (that'd be the same Wall Street gangsters funding Clinton) will make damned certain their former lobbyist is head of the Banking Committee. You heard it here first. |
|
Yaya.
http://www.rollcall.com/news/policy/bayh-wont-booting-brown-banking-panel (from August 9): Former Democratic Sen. Evan Bayh won't be allowed to reclaim seniority and leapfrog a champion of progressive causes on the Senate Banking Committee should Bayh win the Indiana Senate race. Sorry. ;-) Cheers, Scott. |

At the risk of sounding even more the conspiracy theorist.
Bayh has been a Bankster Lobbyist ever since he left the Senate. You know, the usual way a Senator goes to cash in on all the good work he did for his masters while (cough, cough, wheez, gag) representing the people. So now it looks like maybe a somewhat Progressive might be the new Senate Banking Chairman. I don't think it's too much of a stretch for the Bankster owners to go to their tool Bayh and say, "Hey, why don't you run for Senate again? Here's some money. Nobody in Indiana can beat you because of your daddy and because it's an incredibly weak field. If we get lucky, you'll either knock off the Progressive and be Chairman yourself or have at least some influence on the banking committee. We need one of our own on that committee." The cover Bayh came up with to leave the Senate so he could cash in with his Bankster buddies, that "gridlock" was the reason, is laughable now. He's going back because it's gotten better? Give me a break. His candidacy is nothing more than the Bankster Community getting one of their reliable stooges back in the Senate. And, regrettably, most Hoosiers will allow them to do exactly that. |
