That's 15.

Fifteen people calling themselves Democrats who are actively supporting the Republican agenda. Fifteen people who are blocking any movement in a progressive direction by the new administration, by teaming up with obstructionist Republicans.

Fifteen people claiming their overarching *concern* for fiscal responsibility.



Evan Bayh states there are a few more who wish to remain secret... for now.

BAYH: Well there are about 12 of us on the press release and then there are three or four who we are putting in the witness protection program, who attend our meetings but don’t want to be publicly identified yet.

From Think Progress

No secrets, Bayh.

We will find out who your people are. Bet on it.

These actions are positively shameful.




Americans did NOT vote for Republicans or their agenda in November, 2008.


These "ConservaDem" turncoats MUST BE REMOVED FROM THE SENATE, and replaced with progressive voices OF and FOR the people.
