The Hill News

Rep. Peter Roskam (R-Ill.) probably has fans among the intern pool on Capitol Hill.

Roskam, the Republican chief deputy whip, introduced interns in his Capitol Hill office to Dennis Hastert, a political rock star to the Republican party.

Dennis Hastert, the longest-serving Republican Speaker of the House in history (from 1999 to 2007), stopped by Roskam's office on Wednesday.

Roskam tweeted Thursday:

The Roskam interns had a surprise visitor yesterday: Frmr Speaker Denny Hastert. Pics at http://on.fb.me/peGxZj #gop #tcot #ilgop

Photos on Roskam's Facebook page show Hastert sitting down for a chat with Roskam and the interns in the congressman's office.
