Have Onorato and Corbett Gone Soft?
The Gubernatorial Race Democratic Dan Onorato and Tom Corbett make it appear as though they are playing “nice” while campaigning compared to the Senate Race. Does this mean a clearer judgment of the better governor candidates can be determined among the voters?
This in no means indicates that Onorato and Corbett haven’t tried to put a negative light on each other. On the contrary, both candidates have each spent hundreds of thousands of their campaign funding on TV commercials and aids. For Corbett, paying double the amount of paid-off because afterward Corbett led over Onorato. Although Onorato attacked “…across-the-board budget cuts…” proposed by Corbett, saying it would significantly hurt senior citizens. And yet again Corbett ran an aid using Onorato’s words to damage Onorato’s creditability when it came to job increase in Allegheny.
More time than none the aid run by candidate have little truth in them. Commercials, used to diminish the opponents judgment or character, consists of quotes and policies obscured and twisted to present themselves, the candidate as a positive figure, being the “good guy.” I believe that for the most part voters should not base their candidate decisions upon aids and commercials. These are not reliable sources. Voters should research on the candidate’s policies and tune into debates to get a better idea of whom they should, in fact, vote for.
