In a non-babel document, "o" inserts ``o'', ""o"" inserts "o".  If you
have \usepackage[ngerman]{babel} (or german) in your preable, typing "o"
will insert "o" literally, and typing ""o"" will insert "`o"'.

I have to confess that just adding \usepackage[ngerman]{babel} using C-c
RET to an existing document didn't work for me, although both
TeX-parse-self and TeX-auto-save are t.  I had to explicitly load
ngerman.el here...
