Will Ellsworth Pivot on ObamaCare?

Now that Rep. Brad Ellsworth (D-IN) has decided to run for the Senate, it will be interesting to see how much he tries to distance himself from ObamaCare — and how eagerly he switches his vote if that proposed overhaul ever makes it to another floor vote in the House.  Of the 219 House Democrats who voted for ObamaCare, Ellsworth was one of only ten who represent a district where Republican presidential candidates have won by double-digits in at least two of the last three elections.  Now he plans to run statewide in Indiana, where Republicans presidential candidates have won by an average of 15 percentage points over the last ten elections.  This should be interesting, and I doubt it will end well for Ellsworth.
