No possible candidate boasts a name more ready-made for Congress than Ohio state Sen. Jimmy Stewart, who has been getting GOP entreaties to run against Democratic Rep. Zack Space.

Here's legendary actor Jimmy Stewart portraying the title character in the original political classic. Mr. Smith Goes to Washington:

Some good news for the real-life Jimmy Stewart: If you run for the House and win, you'll never have to stand in the ornate chamber and talk until you drop, since filibusters are a creature of the Senate only. But you would get to stand in an empty ornate chamber for as long as you want at the end of any session day, talking to no one but the C-SPAN camera.
