Columnist: PA Gov. Tom Corbett just won reelection

An interesting column by John Featherman in The Philadelphia Inquirer, the state's largest (and most liberal) newspaper about the changing fortunes of Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett.



Without wedge social issues such as gay marriage, voter ID and abortion, Democrats have nothing to run on in November.

Tom Wolf is a former Rendell Administration official and Rendell left the state a fiscal mess before Corbett stepped in to clean things up.


The state's economy is on the rebound under Corbett, so why would anyone want to go back to the Rendell days of high taxes and growing deficits?

Featherman predicts a close race because Democrats hold a large advantage in voter registration numbers, but still believes Corbett will win a second term.


The

Democrats look great on paper, and the polls have been with them. Up

until now, things have been so good that it was literally their election

to lose.



And guess what?





They will do the impossible.





They will lose it, thanks to a big assist from a strategy employed by the greatest boxer of all time exactly 40 years ago.
