Swann and Scranton news

In the ongoing drama over Republican gubernatorial hopefuls, frontrunners Lynn Swann and Bill Scranton are getting most of the press coverage and regional endorsements. The two appeared at an event of the Philadelphia Young Republicans yesterday, where they recounted their life stories and swore to do battle with the Democratic incumbent. The event was explicitly not a debate, but more of forum, with speeches by each, followed by questions from the audience; however, no debate is planned before the date of the party endorsement, so these appearances were given close scrutiny by the press, but not that many differences in substance are yet evident.
