From Politico:
Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell is well aware that the Democrat who wants to succeed him is facing an uphill battle.
The two-term Democratic governor said in an interview Wednesday that while he supports nominee Dan Onorato, he knows he’s the “underdog” in the race and the GOP nominee, Attorney General Tom Corbett, “ is still a “tough candidate to beat.”
“He’s behind in all the polls, how far behind depends on which poll you read,” Rendell said. “I was behind Bob Casey by 25 points when I got into the Democratic primary. It’s a little harder in the bad economy. Money is harder to raise.”
