Bayh attempting to form Blue Dog coalition in the Senate

Basically, this is intended to be a carbon copy of the Blue Dogs in the House. They're basically a coalition of extremely conservative Democrats, often from the south. Democrats who often screw us on key legislation. But the thing is, even without a Blue Dog coalition in the Senate, those Democrats often screw us too. Democrats don't "do" party unity, so I suspect the Blue Dogs in the House would vote with the Republicans whether or not they had formed an official club. Still, considering that pretty much every Democrat in the Senate is a Blue Dog when it comes to any issue even vaguely relating to national security, patriotism, or any other time the Republicans threaten to be mean to them, it's not clear if Bayh's new group will have any impact at all - other than to codify a pro-Republican spinelessness that Democrats already had all along.
