Yesterday Republican Representative Bill Cassidy made headlines when he announced his intention to run against incumbent Senator Mary Landrieu in the upcoming 2014 senate race. However, Cassidy may not be Louisiana's only Republican congressman willing to throw his hat in the senate race ring.

Though Tea Party conservative and former Rep. Jeff Landry has not yet announced any intention to run for senate in 2014, he's made no effort to deny the rumors.

In an article released yesterday by political news site Roll Call, Landry stated that he will be making an announcement next week on something that "may have the ability to play in this race".

Though the coy Landry refused to elaborate on his statement, he teased reporters once more stating,

I never like to let people open their presents until Christmas Day. - Jeff Landry
