He defeated the conservative David McIntosh in 2000. He is an ally of Senator Evan Bayh.
I can't figure out why Indiana has had 16 years of 'RAT governors when the state is so heavily GOP. Senator "son of Birch" Bayd makes sence and I could see a Dem winning ONE term as Governor as a fluke, but 16 years??
Does anyone know if O'Bannon is a "moderate" Dem? I've never heard him make any kooky liberal statements. He seems like an okay guy, at least for a Dem.
