a few things you might try:
fiddle with random_page_cost
make sure effective_cache_size is set to a realistic value
increase statistics target on critical columns, like
ORDER.ORDER_DATE and join columns
(and re-analyze)
possibly get change the cast in your where clause:
ORDER.ORDER_DATE::date between '2007-03-01' and '2007-03-27'
to
ORDER.ORDER_DATE between '2007-03-01'::timestamp
and '2007-03-27'::timestamp
