| Description | Rep. Lynn Woolsey, one of the most liberal members of Congress, is thinking -- thinking, mind you -- about calling it quits in 2012 after this term ends.
"She hasn't made up her mind," Wools' spokesman Carl Rauscher told us Friday. "But she will make that call by June."
Woolsey -- who led the House's Progressive Caucus for six years until recently -- said as recently as October that she was feeling good and had no plans to retire. But on Thursday, the 73-year-old told the Santa Rosa Press Democrat's ivory towerians that she was thinking about calling it quits.
Apparently, her Hamleting on whether to run has been one of the worst kept secrets in Petaluma. State Assemblyman Jared Huffman, D-San Rafael, has already formed an exploratory committee. |
