DescriptionLOS ANGELES - Former U.S. Rep. Robert K. Dornan, who represented Orange County from 1985 through 1996 as a Republican, is considering another run for Congress from outside the party.

Dornan, 72, failed in bids for Congress in 1996, 1998 and 2004.

He is considering running as a candidate for the American Independent Party to gain an advantage for the congressional seat held by Rep. Christopher Cox, R-Newport Beach. The seat is expected to become vacant with the U.S. Senate's expected confirmation of Cox as chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Two Republicans - state Sen. John Campbell of Irvine and former Assemblywoman Marilyn C. Brewer of Newport Beach - have announced plans to run for the post.
