Hey, did you see Scott Wagner's new commercial criticizing Gov. Wolf's budget and his veto of the republican budget? The most striking thing about the commercial is the prominent display of a coffee mug emblazoned with the Maple Donut logo, donuts in the background, and at the end of the commercial Scott is chowing down on some donuts with a couple other people.
I wonder how much money Charlie "Donut" Burnside is contributing to Wagner's campaign for this blatant commercialism in a political message. Charlie "Donut" must be Wagner's version of a Koch brother.
I guess it's Scott's payback to Wolf supporters for the mailer in July about how Wagner was leading the fight to block the governor's budget plan. So, this petulant little 4th grade retaliation program is what we get instead of acting like adults and sitting down to cooperate, collaborate, and compromise to pass a reasonable state budget for the benefit of all Pennsylvanians. I mean, they're only a couple of months late . . . And they're not in session. What a great job!
For a guy that went to Harrisburg claiming to be an outsider and rabid independent politician, Scott sure has morphed into a partisan political animal. Just so he doesn't eat too many of those donuts, or that animal will be a massive bloated elephant.

I got just a glimpse of that and thought Wagner was advertising Maple donuts and thought it a bit unusual. Now I understand. Thanks, Rongone.

What? He didn't bust any unions in the commercial? Voters got exactly what they deserve with this guy. When you don't research or know anything about the candidates and just go in vote R or D without knowing anything, you get people like this. What an embarrassment.
I see he was mouthing off to a woman letter righter in the paper this morning.

It's pretty much standard fare for a hopful to present themselves as a 'rogue'. Not one of the cookie-cutter politicial crowd.
None of them got where they are by bucking the system.
I'm amazed people still fall for that line.
