Corbett espouses a Reaganesque belief that budget cuts and low taxes are the cure to the states' fiscal woes.

The determination shown by the state attorney general in going after drug dealers and corrupt politicians is what Pennsylvania needs from its next top executive.

For eight years, Pennsylvania's businesses have waited - to no avail - for tax relief and a less domineering state government that would allow them to do what they are meant to do - thrive and employ people. Pennsylvania taxpayers have gotten lots of promises and gimmicks from the current leadership but, in reality, have gotten little more than heavy taxes and runaway spending.

Given next year's estimated budget deficit of $5 billion and the looming pension crisis, there's a concern that the attorney general isn't facing up to fiscal realities.

She expects she also would have his ear on policy issues whenever she cares to weigh in.

Alluding to the Democratic voter registration edge in the state, the attorney general said, "As a Republican we don't get elected statewide unless Democrats vote for us."

And with the ghosts of present and future deficits shrieking in the hallways of Harrisburg, who are you going to call? Dan Onorato, who carries the same Democratic brand? Or Tom Corbett, the Republican, who offers the best chance of a fresh approach from top to bottom?

Tom Corbett urged his Republican supporters for his gubernatorial campaign to work hard to get out the vote Nov. 2 and bring his team to victory.

About 200 Republican regulars from around Chester County gathered in the parking lot of the Good Will Fire Company at noon Saturday to greet their candidate at a small rally.
