GOP chief says Taft owed dues to avoid 1990 fight
Ohio Republican Party Chairman Robert Bennett said there was no deal for Taft to enter a 1998 gubernatorial primary with Bob Taft. He urged Blackwell and other incumbents to seek second terms and noted Taft's 1990 decision to withdraw from the governor’s race while Voinovich eyes a Senate bid. Taft defended his past move as his own.
