The only candidate ever to defeat Barack Obama in an election vs. the only candidate ever to defeat George W. Bush in an election.

Rush currently serves as the Representative for IL-01, serving since 1993. In 2000, he was primaried by then-State Senator Barack Obama and won by a comfortable margin.

Hance recently served as Chancellor of the Texas Tech University System, but prior to that he served as the Representative for TX-19 from 1979 to 1985. Running as a Democrat to succeed longtime incumbent George H. Mahon, Hance defeated Bush in the general and proceeded to switch parties.
