You need to punish vermin. I had a sink that my washer drains into. A lil baby rat somehow got into that sink , n' couldn't get out. I did not waiver. I simply let the washer drain properly into the sink. Vermin is vermin.

the likely replacement for bayh as nominee is a pro-gun, anti-abortion democrat. and the republican dan coates is even more conservative.
evan bayh had to represent his constituents in indiana, not someone elses in san francisco.
the problem with the progressive arguement that what's lacking is party discipline is the utter failure to notice that despite the election of obama this is still a center-right country. you can "punish" all the evan bayh's and ben nelson's you want. it won't help move a purely progressive agenda through congress.
i'd leave it up to to the republicans to purify their party.
