The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has hired former Senator Evan Bayh (D-IN) to participate in a regulatory reform "road show" of speeches, events and media appearances, according to a memo obtained by iWatch News.

"The Chamber's communications professionals, working closely with our federation and government affairs teams, have done an excellent job educating the public and policymakers about the regulatory overload the nation currently faces, its damaging impact on our economy and jobs, and the urgent need for change," President Thomas Donohue wrote in a June 2 memo to the Chamber's board of directors, supporters and friends. "I'm pleased to report that the Chamber has recently enlisted former White House Chief of Staff Andy Card and former Senator Evan Bayh who will carry a bipartisan message on regulatory reform out around the country."

The memo identifies regulatory reform as the "first among equals" of the eight new initiatives announced by the Chamber last year, and states that regulations "constitute a a confusing and oppressive burden."

Tom Collamore, the Chamber's senior vice president for communications, told iWatch News that Bayh and Card will participate in a conference call next week with Chamber supporters, and that an official announcement of the "road show" will come on June 22. "We don't see this effort as an 'us versus them' issue," Collamore said. "Having a Democrat of stature gives the effort more heft and an important perspective."

16. Lest no one forget...

Bayh, in his farewell address from the Senate, raged against the partisan atmosphere in D.C. and offered that he felt he could do more good outside the beltway for the American people. He then promptly took a job with FOX News. He is as dangerous to America as any GOP wing-nut.

[kenfrequed]

17. I blame Bayh

For losing the house to the repugs. His blue dog senate caucus blocked every bit of progressive legislation they could. His people made the progressive change that the American people voted or impossible to carry out. He gave Democrats in congress almsot nothing to run on. The bastard organized his blue dogs in December a month before president Obama even took the oath of office.

Oh yeah, and he screwed over his state party too by taking campaign donations up until a week before the state convention and then pissed on everyone by declaring that he wasnt running again. What a jerk!
