There are some real health care reform howlers on Brad Ellsworth’s congressional website, but somehow this press release is only available through the way back machine: “In addition to meeting my pro-life principles, the plan reduces costs, improves access to affordable insurance options, covers pre-existing conditions, and does not add one penny to the deficit - my five principles for health care reform.”
The Indiana Democrat announced his support for the bill post-Stupak but pre-executive order. And earlier this week, the Congressional Budget Office announced that the bill will cost $115 billion more than the original projections, bringing the total cost above $1 trillion for the first decade. Ellsworth is expected to be officially named the Democratic nominee for Sen. Evan Bayh’s seat this week.

Ellsworth is a scoundrel and deserves to be treated like one. He sold his country out for his party.
Nick| 5.12.10 @ 9:36PM
Typical lying liberal democrat.

He lacks honor to suppose his judgements are worthy of public service, but if he is using the crowd he runs with as a benchmark, you can see why he is delusional about the disconnect from what he says to what he does.
Small government means the mistakes politicians make do not have large effects. Now that we are accelerating the size of government, any politician that believes the effect of his vote will be benign is either an idiot or ignorant. Already, there is enough evident of the Dems (and Repubs) that are voting for trillion dollar wishes to be booted.
It won't be long before Democrats find a way to blame the unborn for abortions, in much the same way they are blaming bankers for poor lending practices.

I don't think Ellsworth has much of a chance against Coats. For some reason, the name Bayh was as magical as Kennedy in Massachusetts, but Indiana is still a Republican state.
