Tom Wolf used his biography to win the Democratic primary, now Gov. Corbett is trying to turn his opponents greatest strength into a weakness.

In a new 30-second TV spot, the Corbett-Cawley campaign accuses the Democratic nominee of refusing to divulge information about his business history.

“Tom Wolf spent millions bragging about himself in TV ads,” the commercial begins.

The ad features a Wolf impersonator displayed on TV screens placed atop four separate bodies. The gimmick is that with each new accusation, Wolf shuts off the TV in order to avoid answering.

The questions brought up by the Corbett campaign include topics from the primary like his campaign loan and his company’s policies towards women. It finishes with the recent claims the Governor has made about Wolf dodging state taxes.

“Tom Wolf, what’s he hiding?,” concludes the spot, entitled “No, No, No”.

The Governor’s campaign stated that the ad will begin running on broadcast and network TV statewide tonight.
