Wolf vs. Corbett

[Vega]

Does anyone have any polling matchups between Wolf and Corbett?

Corbett is behind Mr. Wolf by 19 points; a margin which I'm sure will grow.

Also, I am 100% sure it will be like 2006 for the Gubernatorial race.

That margin will shrink.  There will be some damage in the primary.

I'm sure.

Corbett's margin will shrink too, once it's found out all the dirty deals he's made.

Dull rich dudes can win, if they run the right campaign and people like em'.

If Wolfe does exactly the opposite of what Romney did, he should be fine.

No, Corbett's negatives are all out.

Well, we will see... you never know.

Casey Jr. could run for President in 2020 (or 2024 if a Republican wins).

There's no way a pro-life candidate would win the Democratic nomination.

He could flip flop.

NARAL begs to differ. Looking at the facts, I'd say he's pro-life personally but votes moderately on the issue of choice. And unlike the average pro-lifers, he actually supports birth control.

Indeed.

He is a moderate on the pro-life wing.

And as IceSpear said, the Dems are intolerant of anyone that disagrees with them on their litmus tests.

Oh, so, like the Reps?

Anyway....

At the Progressive Summit Debate and Straw Poll, the results were as follows...

None of the above .4
Jack Wagner .4
Jo Ellen Litz .4
Allyson Schwartz 9.4
Katie McGinty 10.9
Tom Wolf 22.8
Rob McCord 24
John Hanger 31

Since John Hanger is probably the most liberal Democrat in the primary, this is no surprise. Also, Jo Ellen Litz should do herself a favor and drop-out.

Maybe Wagner should primary Corbett instead.

He would probably have a better chance at that.

Although I was kidding at first, this is probably true. His chances are negligible in both, but there's value in being the sole realistic protest vote to Corbett. I actually think Guzzardi will end up getting in the high 30s or low 40s against Corbett simply by virtue of being the only other choice on the ballot.

I'm sure he will get at least 41% of the vote; alot of Republicans... dislike Corbett.

And I'm sure if Wagner would run in the Republican Primary, or any credible candidate with money, they would win; or at least get close.

Nah.

Democrats have Joe Manchin and Heidi Heitkamp in their caucus. Meanwhile, people like Pat Roberts and Thad Cochran are facing primaries for being "too moderate". Enough said.

And Dems haven't complained about Manchin?

Yes we have; but do we primary him? No.

[Vega]

The only Democrat getting a primary challenge is Schatz, and his is coming from the right.

Ha, precisely.

[Vega]

Casey Jr., will get tired of the United States Senate and would want to come home , fulfill his goal following his late father's footsteps as governor.

If Corbett wins, I see Casey Jr going for it in 2018.

Corbett will loose and Casey will be gunning for another office in 2020.

[Vega]

Any election Casey Jr. runs in, he has a good chance at winning.

[Vega]

He doesn't strike me as having the fire in his belly for a presidential run. I mean, he hardly even campaigned in 2012.

But he still won.
