Onorato is in attack mode.
Edited on Mon Oct-04-10 07:41 PM by anthroguy101
I've seen ads plastered all over the Internet and many commercials on TV. The message?

Onorato is the jobs governor.



Over his career, Dan Onorato has created over 9000 jobs in Allegheny County. Tom Corbett: 0.

Onorato has also been talking about how he'll clean up Harrisburg. He's slamming Tom Corbett for his blatant hypocrisy since Corbett is the only candidate that raised property taxes. This is very important to most Pennsylvanians, and the polls are showing that they are paying attention.

Onorato is starting to gain traction, even though he's running against a "mainstream" Republican candidate. He's on the move an on the attack. Don't you think other Democrats should start doing the same?

1. Corbett is an elitist asshole pig. I didn't think my fellow Pennsylvanians were THAT fucking stupid
But hey, it took a while to send Santorum back to his REAL home in Virginia and that Santorum-wannabe sleazeball Toomey is a serious contender for the US Senate.

6. Why isn't he coming out swinging like he did in the primary?
I hate to say it, but Corbett's ads are effective and more frequent. Same with Toomey, at least the frequency. His ads are meh.

Corbett's first ad cracks me up, when he says, 'When said I would cut (blah blah), Ed Rendell said I should get my head examined' . . . and my thought always is, if Rendell is saying that, than you better go make that appointment immediately, LOL.

8. I think he has greater material than Corbett
He's clearly pointing out the hypocrisy of his challenger. I think people are starting to wake up. The state just went from "solid Republican" to "leaning Republican." Let's hope this momentum continues.

As for cyberspace ads, Onorato pwnd Corbett in that area.
