Democratic incumbent at risk

For months, national observers have cited three Republican congressmen in Indiana as vulnerable to their Democratic challengers. Last week, a new poll showed that U.S. Rep. Julia Carson, D-Ind., is running slightly behind her Republican challenger.

Critics say Republican Eric Dickerson is playing dirty by raising Carsons health as an issue.

The question sounds like fair game to us when a challenger faces an incumbent who was hospitalized after double-bypass surgery when she was sworn into Congress nearly 10 years ago.

She also missed dozens of House votes in 2004; she explained that she felt bad and had no energy.
