Too many of them and republicans are pissed off at his cuts in education, being in the pocket of Oil & Gas, adding to the gasoline tax, trying to sell a state run business that actually makes money (liquor), and much more. <br />His attempts and successes over the last 4 years has affected enough people who are angry enough to get out to vote and kick his ass to the curb.<br />His huge defeat by the numbers will be his greatest legacy, to be used by political pundits making comparisons in future races.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-72358243465607872352014-11-01T00:24:02.857-04:002014-11-01T00:24:02.857-04:00Republicans are fed up with Corbett, and he may hu...Republicans are fed up with Corbett, and he may hurt other Republicans by deterring their base from coming out. Which is rare for Republicans. Unlike Democrats, Republicans vote on non-Presidential years too. <br /><br />And no matter what everything says, many people blame Corbett for Sandusky and Joepa's death. <br /><br />Oh, and Republicans already showed no faith in Corbett. Chris Christie is flying to The beer & brats state and Florida. Yet he won't cross the Free Bridge for Corbett. His next door neighbor.

I like Corbett, but his cuts to social services were too much for me to abide. Also, he avoids taxing wealthy gas companies but thought nothing of an increasing gas tax that will really hurt those of us with limited financial resources and income. I don't consider him the evil demon that many Democrats seem to think, but he did not earn a second term.

Taft was the last President with facial hair in 1913.<br /><br />Older generations - the ones who vote - find facial hair from mustaches to beards makes a person look untrustworthy.<br /><br />Why do you think Mayor Ed lost his once he ran for Mayor?<br /><br />Outside the mysterious voter aversion to facial hair, this election will be close because I don't expect Democrats to vote in the numbers like they have with the exception of the teacher unions who really don't like Corbett.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9299655.post-35504862783174219052014-10-31T07:44:49.157-04:002014-10-31T07:44:49.157-04:00I am afraid you're right and I only thought th...I am afraid you're right and I only thought this last evening as I watched the news conference regarding the capture of Eric Frein.

I plan on voting against him because he has failed to enact pension reform, failed to sell the state stores, no property tax reform and PA's credit rating has been downgraded under his watch. Oh but he did raise our gas tax so now it's $.30 cheaper in NJ. His last budget was unbalanced garbage. As a Republican, I refuse to support fiscally irresponsible Republicans like Corbett, Christie, and LOC John Brown. This race has been over for a year. He's toast.
