Description | CBS News chief political consultant Marc Ambinder said that Sen. Evan Bayh (D-Ind.) who announced Monday that he would not run for reelection this November, "hates" liberals in his own party and "essentially he is blaming liberals in his own party for making bipartisanship unpopular."
"Evan Bayh has had a very complex relationship with liberals in his party and quite frankly has grown to hate them over the past several years because he thinks that they have increased the cost of negotiating with Republicans," Ambinder told moderator Nancy Cordes on Monday's "Washington Unplugged."
Ambinder explained that Bayh feels his these liberals are "making it more difficult for the house leadership and the Senate leadership to even make gestures and overtures on their own accord."
