Evan Bayh will not seek reelection | IndyStar.com | The Indianapolis Star

“But running for the sake of winning an election, just to remain in public office, is not good enough,” Bayh said. “And it has never been what motivates me. At this time I simply believe I can best contribute to society in another way: creating jobs by helping grow a business, helping guide an institution of higher learning or helping run a worthy charitable endeavor.”


Translation:

“But running for the sake of winning an election, just to remain in public office, is not good enough, [even though it was good enough for my father, the Bushes, several generations of Kennedys, the Gores, Cuomos, Bidens, I'm sure I'm leaving many out]” Bayh said. “And it has never been what motivates me. At this time I simply believe I can best contribute to society in another way: creating jobs by helping grow a business, helping guide an institution of higher learning or helping run a worthy charitable endeavor.” [I'm going to become a lobbyist, the pay is better.]
