Evan Bayh, a former two-term Governor of Indiana and now in his second Senate term, was originally considering running for President in 2008, but pulled out in December 2006. He has not yet indicated whether he will seek a third term in 2010, but he is very popular and won reelection with 62% of the vote in 2004.
Should he retire, possible successors on the Democratic side include Congressman Pete Visclosky, former Indianapolis Mayor Bart Peterson, and Former Congressman and 9/11 Commission member Tim Roemer.
Potential Republican challengers could be Congressmen Mark E. Souder, Stephen Buyer, and Mike Pence. Former Congressman Mike Sodrel could be a candidate, Secretary of State Todd Rokiat and Lt. Governor Becky Skillman. Governor Mitch Daniels, who is expected to win re-election in 2008, has indicated he will not run for Senate or any other office.
