Piper, the people endorsing Drink Tax Dan are doing what Spendell wants them to do – just following orders. Without Big Daddy Ed and his rich pals, Onorato wouldn’t even be in this race. I do disagree with you on Wagner. We need him to keep finding all of Spendell’s waste and fraud. But we need to “back jack” out of this race! I don’t want our man having to run against him in the fall – Wagner’s the only one keeping us from taking the governor back!

Onorato is Ed Rendell’s hand-picked successor. It reveals that he is no progressive and is only interested in his corporate friends. Joe Hoeffel is the true progressive in the race. Are there even any steel mills left in Pennsylvania?

Who are these people endorsing Onorato? How many photos does he have of them in precarious situations? And don’t even get me started on Jack Wagner… we should Back Jack away from state government.

While Danny Boy might be a good speaker, he is grossly negligent in developing Allegheny County. If he can’t handle our county, he certainly can’t handle our state. We need to get ALL lawyers OUT OF OUR GOVERNMENT instead of voting them in. As we see in Congress, all lawyers do is confuse the basics of our Constitution and make it necessary to hire their peers to interprete the changes. I say throw everyone with a law degree currently serving in an elected office out of office and keep any new ones from being elected. I’m sick and tired of their nest feathering.

Hey SteelersFan — speaking of the drink tax, did you see who the state Restaurant Association endorsed? The P-G connected those dots. Go Jack!

Allegheny County lost 20,000 jobs last year alone. There are fewer jobs in Allegheny County today than when Mr. Onorato took over his job. Statewide, about mid teens are employed in the manufacturing sector. Manufacturing jobs are now less than 6% of total employment in Allegheney County.
The Republicans would have a field day with Onorato’s record on jobs let alone the biggest tax increase in County history that Dan placed on us out here.
My favorite Democrat is Harry Truman. Give em hell, Harry. “I tell them the truth and they think it is hell,” he said. The GOP is going to use the Truman technique on Dan the Beer Tax man and my guess is that it will work alright.
