I wonder how Bob Taft feels to know that, after all these generations, he's the Taft to push Ohio into the Democratic column?

Special elections are often atypical though. Around 1981-82, there was one in central Ohio won by Oxley, succeeding Tennyson Guyer. That one was very close -- now it could have been because it was a weak economy, but it could also have been just because it was a special election.
