(October 28) John Hostettler (R-Indiana) has been down before yet always seems to find away to get between 50% and 53% on election day. However, this may be the year that his unique way of campaigning finally catches up to him. The Research 2000 poll with him down only seven is in some ways actually good news and means he may have a shot at surviving. But the national party looks to be throwing resources at other vulnerable seats and his opponent Vanderburgh County Sheriff Brad Ellsworth is a very conservative Democrat who fits this district quite well. Hostettler is unquestionably the most vulnerable of three GOP seats in Indiana, and one of the top 3 vulnerable incumbents overall.
