A new Public Policy Polling survey finds Gov. Tom Corbett in a deeper re-election hole than previous polls suggested.

The poll, released Tuesday, finds Corbett losing to five potential Democratic challengers despite none of them having high name recognition.

1. Now dump the GOP legislature as well

Please, for the sake of democracy.

2. He may face a primary.

3. I would love to make him swim in a fracking pond.

I hope he loses by such a margin that the message is loud and clear. And then we need to get rid of the nut jobs in our State Legislature as well. But their redistricting has made that almost impossible.

6. You bet!

7. I'd love to make him drink the fracking fluid

5. Nothing a little voting booth 'fix' can't counteract

He's got friends in high places with LOTS of money....be warned!

8. so people choose someone they don't know over Corbett

So Pennsylvania voters would be willing to vote for someone that 95% of them know nothing about (the Mayor of Allentown) over Corbett. Better to have someone is who is unknown than someone who has failed and is flailing.
