Dillard-Trammell is no stranger to the tough life--one of eight children raised by a single mom on welfare, she emancipated herself at age 15. She faces another challenge in unseating popular incumbent Dan Burton in the most Republican district in Indiana. Dillard-Trammell hopes to do that by defending Social Security, the Brady Bill, education funding and minimum-wage increases, but parts with the Democrats in her stands against abortion and gay rights.
