Because, honestly, he wasn't quite so scummy for a while. I mean, I've never liked him, I always hated that people voted for him *spits* -- but I could understand why, up until about three or four years ago. That's when he got just appalling.
There've been a couple internal scandals that I really hope have hurt him, but I don't know. Pennsylvania basically has two moderate/democratic areas -- pittsburgh and philly -- and everything else is very conservative. Very. I mean, I don't know if the stat is valid, but for a long time we had the most hate groups in the nation.
Yay, Pa! *waves half-mast flag*
But, he did talk a good game for many years. I just... he's always been slime to me. Always. He's a racist, homophobic jackass, and unlike many people who are both racist and homophobic who only make me roll my eyes at best, he's dangerous in his prejudices. And powerful -- scarily powerful after only a very short time. it's badness.
