Good-bayh, hello?

I have seen speculation that Evan Bayh’s resignation from the Senate is motivated by a desire to remain a viable candidate for the presidency. I can’t speak to Bayh’s motivation, but I will say that he is not now, and never will be, a viable candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination. This is a job for which centrists — even faux centrists — need not apply.
If Bayh wants to run for president, he should resign from his political party.
