PA-Gov: Dead Heat

[Keystone Phil]

It scares me that nobody knows what Swann stands for.

Just like Bob Casey?

He is a clone of his father.

Where does his father stand on the Iraq war, the Bush tax cuts, and the nominations of Samuel Alito and John Roberts?

In all fairness, Casey did announce his support for Alito but it was after a long silence on the issue. Other than that, Casey doesn't say much. If he thinks he can win the race by just keeping his mouth shut then he has another thing coming to him.

As for the Gubernatorial race here, Rendell is obviously a lock still. Where are you Smash, Flyers, danwxman, other hacks...?

[Keystone Phil]

Phil, we know you're here.  I don't know about the other hacks.

Tell us more, oh knowledgable one, about how Rendell will cruise into a second term. I'm able to admit when my hero is in trouble; you do the same with one of your's. For the first time we will see an incumbent Governor of PA facing problems in his bid for re-election. Face it - Eddie isn't loved anymore!

[Keystone Phil]

In the Southeast, he's more than fine, hell he's still God.  People in the west are just jealous and I can't answer for that so they have to pick their sports hero to counter. 

This just proves that SE PA does not dictate what happens all the time. Your hero was never as popular as you believed and now people have someone to rally behind to end his time as Governor. We're talking about an incumbent Governor losing his bid for re-election in Pennsylvania...but keep thinking that everything is ok because SE PA loves him.

By the way, you love to mock westerners/Swann supporters because Swann is a sports hero yet a lot of people around here admire Rendell because he's an Eagles guy and can take a few pictures while eating a cheesesteak. This certainly doesn't go one way.

And before you go off into your rant on how their is more to the state, quite simply no one has won the state without the Philly burbs & that is  something Rendell has locked down

Before you spew your stupidity (too late, I guess) please inform me of the last time that western and central PA has gotten so excited over a challenger/disliked the incumbent so much. It's not as simple as your simple mind would like it to be.
