Bayh actually is quite a bit more centrist than Clinton. I predict Bayh-Richardson against a standard Republican (Owens, Allen, Frist) would win the Kerry states plus Indiana and Ohio. In a reelection bid, if he proves himself a true centrist in the white house (which I think he would) and the right nominates an ideologue, expect a blowout in 2012.
Now Bayh v Arnold or Rudy, though, that would just be nuts. The GOPer would be the more leftern candidate; but it wouldn't be like Zell v Chafee or anything, these are real Republicans and Bayh is a real democrat. I don't know who I'd support in such a case, but it would be a really fun election.
