Wisconsin's and Pennsylvania's newest senators are losing no time getting involved in a tasty Capitol Hill tradition: sports betting. With the Pittsburgh Steelers taking on the Green Bay Packers in the Super Bowl, Sen. Pat Toomey, R-Pa., and Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., have made a bet. If the Steelers succeed, Johnson will present Toomey with delicacies from Wisconsin: bratwurst, cheese and beer. If the Packers win, Toomey will bring Johnson some Primanti Bros. sandwiches, heaped high with french fries and cole slaw. Sen. Herb Kohl, D-Wis., hasn't made bets with colleagues in the past, but his spokeswoman assured us he was a Packers fan. Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., has yet to make a bet.
