Those who vote for unconstitutional warrentless wiretaps and vote to protect the criminals that violate our privacy are not worthy of the position they hold. It's impossible to justify undermining the very essence of our constitution in order to protect it. Another sell out.
HOWS YOUR ECONOMY? OH NO HAVEN'T NOTICED? PASS UNEMPLOYMENT EXTENSION SOON..
After seeing the ad supporting and endorsing Senator Hillary Clinton tonight, on television, I can no longer support Senator Bayh in any way, shape, form, or endeavor. As well known as the Bayh name is, in Indiana, I will do everything in my power to encourage the people of Indiana to vote against him in 2010. He has definitely lost touch with reality, especially with among his own constituents.
Senator Bayh needs to get out of D.C. and actually visit his home state every once in awhile. He has definitely lost touch, thats for sure. I won't be voting for him again.
As many people are losing their homes, the bankruptcy legislation that passed in the house is being stalled in the Senate by Senators Bayd and Kyl therefore I sent this to the Rupublican chairman today:
You think the last few elections were bad for the party,wait til the next one.With Senator Bayd and Senator Kyl supporting the banking/mortgage industries and voting agaist the legislation, people will LOSE their homes.They may have to rent but they will still vote and with Senators like these, the Republican party will continue to LOSE voters.Making President Obama and the Democrats heroes for the homeowners is a huge problem for the party and Senator Bayd and Senator Kyl give the appearance that their committment to the businesses that ruined to the economy mean more to them than the people.See you next election but I will note vote the republican ticket,nor will alot of others.Good Luck.

Scroll up... Bayh is listed as a Democrat, not a Republican.
Evan - The "Cap and Trade" bill is, as you know before you in the Senate. I urge you to vote against it. Thanks Lowell Baij
Senator Bayh
Do not support Senate Bill SB-2099 in any way, it is treason in its purest form. It is nothing more then a dirty trick, bill. And I do not think even you are that underhanded enough to accept the method or motavation behind this bill.
Senator Bayh
Do not support H.R. 3200 in the form that it is now in. I have downloaded and read that bill. It is Socialized medicine in the making and if this bill goes thru Communism here we come. Yes we need insurance reform,but not what is in that bill. I do not want the government to be able to tell me what care I can have or what I can not have when I get to be 65. Eventually this bill will push other Health care insurance out and the only option will be the Public Option. Post this question to yourself and to the other members of congress. If you were an ordinary citizen, like your constitutiants, would you want this bill to pass? Thank you for your time.
this bill is so unconstitutional our fore fathers are going to roll over in there graves!!!!!!!!!!!!! also when the people who are in office do nothing to make it public knowledge until 30 full days after it passes they all should be fired!!!!!!!!!!! bet that would put a stimulus in the economy.
Come on Indiana, vote this guy out. Give someone that will listen to the people a try.
Hello, Hello, Hello,
Is anyone home here? Has anyone in Congress or the President himself even read this bill. I honestly do not think so. If they have you would know that most of what the President said would not happen is IN the bill H.R. 3200. Insurance companies will not be able to compete and eventually we will all have only one option and that is the public option. My God what is happening to our country? We do need Health Insurance Reform not healthcare reform. Please please please wake-up Congress.
Sen. Evan Bayh, I hope you enjoy your last term in office...
Indiana, vote this guy out..
** POORER AMERICAN ACTIVE DUTY U.S. MILITARY AROUND THE WORLD WHO ARE RISKING AND LOSING THEIR LIVES FOR ALL OF US ~ HAVE FAMILIES BACK HOME WHO ARE ALSO DYING WITHOUT HEALTH*CARE **
~ PRESIDENT OBAMA AND U.S. SENATOR OLYMPIA SNOWE OF MAINE BOTH KNOW THAT ANY FUTURE HEALTH*CARE PLAN FOR OUR NEW AMERICA NEEDS TO ALSO ENCOMPASS ALL FAMILY MEMBERS(PARENTS & SIBLINGS) OF ACTIVE DUTY MILITARY MEMBERS...ANYTHING LESS WOULD BE UN*AMERICAN ~
**JUST MAYBE AMERICA NEEDS A FEW MORE REVOLVING DOORS IN OUR U.S. CONGRESS **
OUR COUNTRY COULD REALLY USE MANY MORE SINCERE AMERICANS LIKE THIS SPECIAL U.S.SENATOR OLYMPIA SNOWE FROM MAINE WHO CONSIDERS THIS COUNTRIES 45 MILLION POOR AMERICAN MEN WOMEN AND CHILDREN WITHOUT PROPER HEALTH CARE LIKE HER OWN FAMILY AHEAD OF HER ELECTED POLITICAL FAMILY **
45 MILLION POORER AMERICANS HAVE OBVIOUSLY BEEN TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL WITH THE PEOPLES U.S. SENATOR SNOWE OF MAINE.
LAWYERS FOR POOR AMERICANS CAN BE FOUND WITH ANY SEARCH ENGINE.

We do not support HR 3200 in its present form or in any form run by the U.S. Government. We need health insurance reform, not health care reform!
We are watching your actions closely, and promise to vote accordingly. Obama is a one term president, and you will also be finished at the end of your term, if you do not vote the will of the people.
We are proud of our conservative values as you once were as Governor of Indiana. This is not an idol threat Senator; it is a promise!
Respectfully,
