Fossella Urged to Challenge Grimm

“Republicans are so nervous about Staten Island Rep. Michael Grimm’s re-election chances that they’ve quietly reached out to former GOP Congressman Vito Fossella — who quit five years ago after confessing to having a secret second family — to make a comeback for his old seat,” the New York Post reports.

“Grimm is currently the subject of an ongoing Justice Department probe that centers on whether his campaign solicited illegal donations from foreigners during his 2010 campaign.”

Meanwhile, Politicker reports Grimm bashed the report and other “baseless rumors.”
