Kernan is the Democratic Incumbent.
When Governor O'Bannon (Evan Bayh's lt. Governor, and successor) was stricken by a stroke and passed away in Chicago, the Lt. Governor Kernan became Governor last fall.
Kernan had said that he was going to retire from politics, and maybe buy part of a minor league baseball team. However, becoming the Governor obviously gave him reason to run. While he is no Bayh or O'Bannon, he should be formidable if the Indiana economy gains steam this summer.
Kernan was the mayor of South Bend (you may know of it for Notre Dame being nearby).
Daniels I believe worked for Mr. Bush for budget somethin or other. When he left that post , it was obvious to all that he was planning to run for Governor.
