The riddle of Tom Corbett

Gov. Tom Corbett continues to slog along in his uphill fight to fend off Democratic challenger Tom Wolf.

Corbett has been behind in the polls for months.

He might not have faced this monumental task if he'd shown the persona he's used successfully in the recent debates during his first term.

As I said after the very first debate, in which the governor clearly got the better of Wolf and finally put his opponent on the defensive, "Where has this guy been for the past three years."

Instead, Corbett has allowed others to frame him - and the debate.

It might cost him the governor's mansion.

I talk about it today in my Monday print column.
