Election 2010: Corbett Not Surprised By Feisty Lt. Gov. Campaigns

State Attorney General Tom Corbett, the front-runner in next Tuesday's Republican primary election for governor, didn't want to talk today about a new Quinnipiac University Poll that shows him holding a six point lead in the general election if he faces Democratic front-runner Dan Onorato, the Allegheny County Executive.

"We still have Tuesday to go and we have to get elected," Corbett said while touring the Philadelphia Regional Port Authority this morning. "And then we'll see who the opponent is, if we're fortunate enough to win."

Corbett, who was endorsed by the state GOP, called Bucks County Commissioner Jim Cawley an "excellent candidate" for lieutenant governor.  Cawley also has the party endorsement.  Corbett said he was not surprised that the race for lieutenant governor -- there are nine Republican candidates -- has been more feisty than his primary match-up against state Rep. Sam Rohrer of Berks County.

"When you have nine people you have to try to distinguish yourself," Corbett said. "If you just sit back and do nothing, whose going to recognize who you are? I suspect the vast majority of people in Pennsylvania couldn't list all nine. Every once and a while I forget one. I'm not going to tell you which one it is."
