The Audacity of Hope -- in PA
From Lt. Governor Joe Scarnati's news conference (answering a question by RadioPA's Matt Paul, I might add.)
"Pennsylvanians are looking for one thing. They're looking for some hope. They hope that what we do today will make a better day tomorrow. They're looking to see that we understand the plight that's going on."
Scarnati said if he could reflect one issue during the next two years, it would be telling people that "we (legislators) get it, that we understand and we're doing something about it.
"We hear and see what's happening across the Commonwealth. I'm not sure if Pennsylvanians – if they're polled – believe that there's any hope some days," he said.
He said there's something wrong if husbands and wives are working two jobs and still can't make ends meet.
