1. I really wish that they wouldn't do this.

When Dems viciously attack Dems in the primary, it just hurts the winner in the general election. And Corbett is out of the fray. I would be happier to see ads about what they would do better than what is done now----attack Corbett with better ideas for the future.

3. Yesterday, in a row, I kept seeing McCord, Schwartz and Corbett all bashing Wolf, in a row.

"race riot" - I missed that one. Saw the one about some of the cabinets are made in Indiana, not PA. I was kind of leaning toward McCord before this; wish he hadn't gone there. However, I didn't think his ad was half as bad as Ms. Schwartz's, sheesh, talk about over the top. Corbett's was just silly.

7. I haven't seen or heard a single ad that is not just an attack on somebody else.

It's maddening.

There is a kind of funny (to me) radio spot running on KYW where a guy warns us (in a really alarmed, urgent voice) how Schwartz is a radical liberal and is just like Obama!!11!!! and how that horrible Wolf is a tax-happy millionaire. Not sure who is behind that one. (Maybe it's the same teevee ad you are talking about.)

8. That sounds like one of the 3 ads that Corbett has created that he keeps repeating

I don't understand political campaigns that can't create more than 3 ads. Do they think they are achieving anything by running the same ad 100 times per week? Mix it up a little bit, people!
