OH has a decidely GOP Legislature with a Dem Governor, sounds like Incumbent-Protection to me...

Not any more. The 'Rats took over the House side of the state government. OH mostly mirrors the national trend, going left. We have a 'Rat governor who absolutely slaughtered a trueconservativeTM in '06, and basically took over all of the state's elected posts (which is why you have 'Rat operatives in government running background checks on ordinary citizens who question The Holy Messiah Obomba). The 'Rats now outnumber 'Pubs in the Congressional delegation.

The state has turned blue, no question about it. Unemployment is going through the roof and jobs are leaving the state in droves, but the Governor spends a huge amount of time on the campaign trail turning handsprings for Obomba. It's turning into a twin of Michigan from an economic and political viewpoint.

Wow! I missed that one!

That means between 2004 and 2008 the Ohio House went from 60 Republicans and 39 Democrats to 53 Democrats and 46 Republicans. Thats a swing of 14 Seats! WOW.

At the Least the Senate is still overwhelming Republican. That should hold up the Dem’s takin over the Redistricting Process by themselves.
