DENVER--U.S. Rep. Allyson Schwartz (D-Abington) is one of a small handful of politicians whose name has been floated as a possible challenger to U.S. Sen. Arlen Specter in 2010.
But in a brief interview this afternoon with PolitickerPa.com, Schwartz said she was focused only on her coming reelection bid in November.
"I love the work that I'm doing," she told PolitickerPa.com as she left a luncheon for the state delegation at the Democratic convention here. "I'm honored to be thought of as someone who can represent the state.
"We'll see," added Schwartz, who represents the 13th Congressional District.
She also briefly addressed the relatively low-key campaign being run by her Republican opponent Marina Kats, who recently acknowledged feeling overwhelmed by the race. Despite any lack of visible campaigning by the Kats operation, Schwartz said she would continue to campaign hard.
"I'm out and about and reaching out to constituents all the time," she said.
