14. After seeing Evan Bayh being interviewed today on MSNBC..

....You could tell something was up.

When they asked him if he'd been going through the vetting process, he just smiled and changed the subject.

When they asked him if he wanted it.. he just had a shit eating grin on his face..



Something is DEFINITELY up with him... you can tell!!!

15. Thanks for suggesting a Democratic running mate....I expect it will be either Bayh or Biden

[ulysses]

16. The "chattering class" are really hot on Bayh at the moment.

From this morning WaPo online --

The Case for Evan Bayh

There is no hotter candidate in the vice presidential sweepstakes right now than Indiana Sen. Evan Bayh. In addition to taking over the number one slot in last Friday's Veepstakes Line (no higher honor exists), Bayh was also at the center of veep speculation during a joint appearance with Obama last week in the Hoosier State.

Then on Sunday Bayh appeared on "Fox News Sunday" where he (again) addressed the issue -- in the classic non-denial denial that is common to any close observer of the veepstakes.

"Well, I've said that's not the sort of thing you'd say no to, Chris," Bayh said to host Chris Wallace.

"Which means you'd say yes?" asked Wallace.

"Well, that's the type of thing you do say yes to, and I've said that, but you should probably ask Joe, he has more experience with the vice presidential questions than I do," Bayh replied.

Is Bayh peaking at the right time? Today we make the case for Barack Obama to pick Bayh. Tomorrow we argue the opposite.
