    HARRISBURG -- As Democrat Josh Shapiro continues to massively outraise his Republican gubernatorial opponent, he's using some of that haul on more than just his own reelection. The latest campaign finance reports show the governor gave more than $5.6 million to the state Democratic Party's political action committee throughout the summer -- something party insiders say shows a striking level of centralization around Shapiro as Pennsylvania's Democratic standard-bearer.
