(51,545 posts)Corbett is an child rape ignoring, forced pregnancy law signing evil fuck who should have a much higher disapproval rating than 48%. We can't take anything for granted, even with those numbers. GOTV!

(1,113 posts)Corbett is such an asshole. I love Allyson Schwartz. She was my rep. in Congress until this last redistricting. She will be a great Governor. But also there is so much that needs to be fixed because of Corbett. Kinda like Pres. Obama having to fix the ruin caused by bush.

(3,491 posts)but the election is still kind of far off and PA always has reelected the standing governor. One thing I'm afraid of is too many democratic candidates from the SE part of PA. That will dilute someone like Schwartz's numbers if only one Dem comes out of the Pittsburgh area. This in turn helps Corbett if whoever comes out of SW PA is not popular in SE PA (where most if not all of the Republican moderates reside in this state).
