The Kennedy Mystique can’t get a Democrat elected in Massachusetts, Beau Biden decides not to run for Senate in Delaware, and Chris Dodd calls it quits in Connecticut.

And now, in Indiana, Evan Bayh trails Rep. Mike Pence in a hypothetical match-up, by three percentage points. What’s more, Bayh is only ahead by 3 against former Republican congressman, John Hostettler.

This may be the first cycle in a long time where you don’t want your father to have been a political legend.
