With a conservative site urging him on, devout Christian Tim Tebow is being touted for Congress.

The Washington Examiner reported that “the surprise retirement of a key Florida congressman has Republican strategists eager to give the ball to former Florida Gators quarterback Tim Tebow, according to several sources.”
“We do not pick favorites,” said a key party strategist, but “obviously a huge Florida football star would be an interesting candidate for our side of the aisle.”
Red Alert Politics added about the 28-year-old: “Instead of riding on former fame and sports accomplishments, Tebow can continue to expand his impact on the country and the world. … If there is any chance Tebow could run, Republicans and the NRCC should actively recruit him and welcome him into the party.”
