	Rep. Woolsey backs Clinton

Presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) got a potential 
boost to her anti-war credentials this week when she won the endorsement 
of Rep. Lynn Woolsey (D-Calif.), a co-founder of the Out-of-Iraq caucus 
and one of the vehement anti-war voices in Congress.

Clinton has been criticized for her 2002 vote in favor of the resolution 
that authorized the use of force in Iraq. Unlike the other Democratic 
presidential contenders, she has not openly regretted that decision.

Woolsey told the Marin Independent Journal Wednesday that Clinton “is 
the one who can take what she says and turn it into reality once she's 
elected president.”

Woolsey and her fellow Out-of-Iraq caucus leaders have campaigned in the 
key early presidential states to raise awareness of the anti-war position.
