INDIANAPOLIS (WANE) - INDIANAPOLIS--Indiana Republican Party Chairman Murray Clark issued the following statement today in reaction to the announcement by Sen. Evan Bayh that he would not seek a third term in office. Please consider using this statement in your coverage:
"Evan Bayh has served the state of Indiana with distinction for the past 20 years. While at times we were on different sides of the issues, I have always appreciated his commitment to Indiana. First of all, we thank him for his service and wish him well in the future."
"That said, we have always viewed this Senate race as one that would be competitive. Today's announcement cements that view and we really like our chances in the general election." --Indiana Republican Party Chairman Murray Clark
