Got Jew? Hillary and Barack Sign Up Jewish Lawmakers
Several days after Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, tussled publicly over whether to hold direct talks with the leaders of Iran and Syria, they both seem particularly eager to show support from Jewish members of Congress.
Clinton announced the endorsement of Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California yesterday. Meanwhile, Obama announced that Rep. Paul Hodes, a freshman lawmaker from New Hampshire, will serve as a national co-chair of his campaign, while veteran New Jersey Rep. Steve Rothman will serve as Northeast Regional Co-chair.
