PA Gov. Corbett: Dismal Jobs Record, Fake Medicaid Plan & All-Time Low Poll Numbers [VIDEO]

This is a video from my show Counterpoint PA, the only grassroots progressive newscast exclusively about Pennsylvania politics.

In this video, I show dismal jobs and wage growth statistics about PA Gov. Corbett's time in office from a new Keystone Research Center study, explain the bogus Medicaid plan he recently proposed to restrict the program and then use ObamaCare Medicaid expansion funds to cover fewer people with private insurance instead, and put these two unfolding stories in the context of his imminent 2014 reelection campaign which isn't looking so hot right now as the latest poll just recorded him with an all-time low approval rating.



For a transcript, links to the sources used in this story, or to browse the show's categorized video archive, go to http://counterpointpa.org. (Go here if you want to go right to the post for this video.)

Check out the Counterpoint PA YouTube channel for the rest of this edition of the show.

On youtube there's a person with channel named shark, he has a lot of video footage of your current Pa. politicians in action. a lot is not very flattering.

here's one of his Corbitt videos. he has a lot more.

I'm from central PA and my entire family is DONE with Corbett; not that they voted for him anyway.

Since you're on top of all this, do you know if Kathleen Kane has a chance to indict him for his contribution to the Penn State mess? I know she's said she would, but not sure if she's go enough evidence.

I live in Texas now and hate what I see happening to my home state.
