The Daily Grind

BY Mary Katharine Ham

And, the NYT wept: "Mr. Bayh’s decision staggered Democrats. It was the latest in a series of setbacks that illustrate just how far the party’s fortunes have fallen since President Obama came to office more than a year ago, sweeping big majorities into the House and Senate with him."
Again: "Climate experts have been forced to admit another embarrassing error in their most recent report on the threat of climate change."

It has come to this: Palestinian protesters dressed as Navi from "Avatar."

Who would try to fight Mitt Romney? (Another one of those violent right-wingers, I bet.)

Cool: "The Afghan Taliban's second in command, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, was captured last week in Karachi during a joint operation by Pakistan's intelligence service and the CIA, according to U.S. and Pakistani sources."

No. 2 on the list of those who could replace Bayh for Dems is the guy who called health-care protesters "political terrorists." How populist!

Indiana Dem cries WH conspiracy to anoint Baron Hill as Dem candidate in Indiana.
