Please Barack, don't pick Evan Blah for Veep!

There are many reasons Barack Obama should take a pass on Evan Bayh for Veep - first among them is and must be Bayh's support for the Iraq War:

Mr. Bayh's support of authorizing force in Iraq stands in sharp contrast to Mr. Obama's oft-stated view that he showed the good judgment to oppose the conflict from the start. After his vote, Mr. Bayh in early 2003 joined Mr. McCain as an honorary co-chairman of the Committee for the Liberation of Iraq, which made regime change in Iraq its central cause.

"He was not only wrong, he was aggressively wrong," said Tom Andrews, national director of the Win Without War coalition, referring to Mr. Bayh. "In my view, he would contradict if not undermine the Obama message of change, turning a new page on foreign policy and national security."

I am tired of safe, triangulating, spineless Dems. Barack will not be one as President. He shouldn't pick one for Veep either.
