thanks daddy. i can’t wait to ride the gravy train
Nepo baby vs. a sock puppet for a guy (Jim Banks) who cares more about transgendered folks than a president committing treason.
The Democratic Party in my lifetime has become a true disgrace. The growing slate of candidates embracing ridiculous, anti-American, anti family beliefs, philosophy, economics is truly astounding. Also, the decline of authentic liberal beliefs, such as free speech, democracy is shocking. I am amazed the Bayh family is still in that tent. Apparently power, prestige, and money is indeed the family business and not principle.
How much has Musk spent on campaigns? Is it 100x the above or more? That puts this into perspective.
Give details.
Slop
Steve, setting aside your rant, the only “tent” the Bayh family is under, is leveraging their assets of being pretty and having a famous last name. Of course the last name only works in Indiana. Notice how Nepo Baby didn’t run for so much as a City Council in his home State of Virginia. Isn’t it odd the family are multi millionaires from government salaries? Evan must have put his money into high yield CDs in the 90’s…..

It amazes me how our leftwing friends don’t see it.
I would even add their blatant bigotry.
However, My two biggest fear s
coming from our leftist friends is their total tolerance to intolerance. Such as so many now on the left no longer believe in free speech and advocate for political violence.
“blatant bigotry”. Keith – You ever finish that research on Hegseth redlining minorities out of their earned by merit, race-neutral promotions to instead make hires based on skin color? Maybe get back to us on that before you keep repeating the tropes you’ve been programmed to repeat but not understand.
Chuck – If your complaint with Bayh is that he doesn’t have enough Indiana ties, then you’re passing over Engling (who has even less ties to Indiana) to vote Ballard, right?
If people want to vote Ballard over either two, I get it. In a perfect world, I’d vote for Ballard too. But to say you’re not voting for Engling because he’s not a resident , but you’re voting Bayh – or vice versa – means you are not being serious.
What possibly does Marine!!! have to do with anything? Young and Banks both claim a military background. Does that qualify them as well?
Marine is slightly relevant, only because it is part of his CV carefully crafted by his daddy and his handlers to make sure he continues the family tradition of being on the taxpayer teat.
Chuck, who are you voting for?
Beau likely wins for a lot of reasons. A Marine!!!

Of course Nepobaby suggests that Beau Bayh only got to be where he is because of his dad, Evan. On the other hand, Engling only got to where he is because of Banks. I would take Evan Bayh over Banks any day of the week.
Nepo Baby IS only where he is because of his last name, and your statement about Engling is also correct. Given a choice between those 2, I would also vote for Bayh. If only there were other alternatives…. Darn it all!
Sorry just seeing this.
The Democrats and most especially the Bayhs have so little respect for the people of Indiana. They are following a scheme that Evan Bayh used. You bring in a Faux Hoosier that grew up on the East Coast and then comes back and pretends to be a Hoosier and strikes up some kind of issue. This is a well sculped plan to start at a lower echelon political office and use that to move up to “mayor,” “Congressman,” “Governor” and the Senator so that he can go HOME in Washington DC and put the Hoosier state in hid rear view mirror. He then becomes a sure vote for the Democrats to continue their controlled demolition of the U.S..
Sounds like a well thought plan.
Neil read the biography of Max Engling and decided to project.
Engling grew up in Illinois, went to college at IUPUI, moved to Virginia where he lives and voted for over a decade, then moved back here at the behest of Jim Banks a couple years ago. He’s 39 and by his own biography, has lived in Indiana less than 10 years total.
Again, if you don’t want to vote for Engling or Bayh because they’re not enough of a native Hoosier for you, that’s fine. But you can’t pick one or the other on that issue without being dishonest about your rationale, go pick Greg Ballard or Lauri Shillings instead.
Neil…… “controlled demolition of the U.S.”??? LOLOLOLOL
MAGAs are alreay well in the lead on that one.
Lots of name calling going on… same as the ads. Do the name callers here have any thoughts of your own, or just like to repeat the messaging you are bombarded w in your echo chamber? Sad.
Just countering the money Jimbo and his personnal PAC are pumping into Engling.
Joe, can you ever post a comment without a whatabout card? The article is about daddy Bayh using his millions of other people’s money, that has been on ice for a decade to get his kid elected. It has nothing to do with Engling, Trump, or anyone else. Odd you can lay out every step of Engling’s life, but you completely gloss over Nepo’s path, including the condo he has been using for a voter address that neither he or daddy lives in.
The carpetbagging is just a fun jab to throw. I couldn’t care less about either one’s resident history. I despise Engling because he is an orange boot licker with all the attending maga values
I dislike Nepo because he is a rich pretty boy who has accomplished nothing in his own (daddy’s influence had nothing to do with Harvard and the marines…)
I will vote for Ballard, who will get trounced. Pretty sure Nepo will win, and will be Governor 3 years from now, carrying on the family tradition of being rich off taxpayer funds and political graft.
Bayh has no prayer of being governor unless Republicans continue making their own tent smaller. Yes, Bayh gets held to a different standard because he hasn’t spent the last decade supporting a covering for Trump. Them’s the breaks, and the bed Republicans made for themselves. Voting for a guy like Bayh is the best way to make Republicans to wake up and stop passing over qualified candidates like Ballard or Shelton.
“If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed…….and we will deserve it.”
If it’s the same Joe B I’ve known since 1st grade, and USED to be friends with, no, he can’t. That’s one reason I blocked him on FB.
Matt – not friends with any Matt W’s on Facebook, have posted there maybe three times in the past 4 years, and my account was turned off on my end for 5 years before that.
So, probably not me.
