In a new interview with Philadelphia Daily News columnist John Baer, Dem Rep. Allyson Schwartz says "[i]t is my intention" to challenge Gov. Tom Corbett next year. Baer ads that Schwartz does not have a "timeline for a formal announcement," but high-profile politicians generally don't make statements like that unless they're really planning to run.
