Sen. Whitehouse endorses Clinton

Rhode Island Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse has endorsed Sen. Hillary Clinton as the Democratic presidential nominee, the Clinton campaign has announced.

Whitehouse has also been named a co-chair of Clinton's Rhode Island campaign.

“All of my colleagues seeking the Democratic nomination are committed to a new direction for our country, and it has been an honor to serve with, and learn from, each of them. Today, I'm proud to endorse Senator Hillary Clinton to be our next president,” Whitehouse was quoted saying in the Clinton announcement. “Her smart, tough, experienced leadership will be critically important as we work to bring our troops home from Iraq, reform our health care system to cover more American families, and solve the energy challenges of the 21st century.”
