Add the name Kate Walsh to the roster of celebs who may run for office one day. “I think there’s a little part of me that fantasizes about serving in public office,” says the “Private Practice” star in the current issue of Capitol File magazine, which hits newsstands today.
When pressed on whether she’d ever run for Senate, Walsh replied, “Ha! Maybe Senator Addison Montgomery!” referring to her character on the show.
Walsh, who campaigned for President Barack Obama last year, also confessed that she thinks Washington is now sexy: “I think Washington is a very exciting, sexy place… can I say sexy? Yeah, I just decided: sexy. So many of the most important decisions and contributions to the country and the world at large are made in DC. How can that not be magnetic?”
