Baton Rouge Congressman Bill Cassidy will announce tomorrow that he is running against Senator Mary Landrieu in 2014.

In a video that will be released tomorrow, Cassidy describes Landrieu as politically too close to President Barack Obama, according to the Associated Press.  The president is relatively unpopular in Louisiana.

So far, Cassidy is the first Republican to declare his intention to run against Landrieu.  Minden Congressman John Fleming told 710 KEEL this morning he is still considering a run.
