Why is Indiana so Republican?

In 1992 it only voted for Bush because Mr. Potatoe was his running mate.

Citation needed.

Bush only won it by 6%, so it's not outside the realm of possibility that Clinton could have carried it without Quayle on the GOP ticket.

Regardless that was a fluke because of Perot.

I don't know about Indiana specifically, but nationally, Perot took equally from Bush and Clinton. the idea that Perot cost him the election is still a myth.

He could have taken equally nationally and still cost Bush the election.

This is true, I would love to see state-by-state exit polls if they exist.
