Woolsey Calls For Primaries Against Dems
By Eric Kleefeld - September 12, 2007, 9:07AM

It turns out that anti-war activists who want to take on the Democrats have an ally within the House Democrats themselves: Representative Lynn Woolsey of California.

The Hill reports that Woolsey approved of a suggestion that activists challenge incumbent Democrats in the primaries. "You folks should go after the Democrats," she said on a conference call last month, organized by the Network of Spiritual Progressives.

"I’d hate to lose the majority, but I’m telling you, if we don’t stand up to our responsibility, maybe that’s the lesson to be learned," Woolsey said.
