Cue the Notre Dame fight song.
Longtime Irish football coach and ESPN analyst Lou Holtz is seriously
considering a Congressional campaign against Rep. Suzanne Kosmas
(D-Fla.),
first reported by the Orlando Sentinel and confirmed to POLITICO by a senior Republican operative.
Holtz met with National Republican Congressional Committee chairman
Pete Sessions last week to express his interest in running for
Congress. The meeting was initiated by Holtz, who flew up from Florida
to meet with committee officials.
"It's a lot more than most celebrity-type candidates do," said the operative.
Holtz is expected to make his decision in the next several weeks.
