The pundits are buzzing away about Evan Bayh's decision to leave the Senate and what it means in various ways but they all seem to be overlooking one significant point: Evan Bayh has Presidential aspirations and by getting out now he avoids and difficult votes that are coming down the line. Bayh cited partisanship as a reason for him to leave now and that may well be true, but at the same time you can imagine that he would have been happy to remain if the Democrat agenda was sailing through smoothly.
