The Rhode Island Democrat answers questions from projo.com readers during the online chat held today from The Providence Journal newsroom.

U.S. Sen. Jack Reed answered questions from projo.com readers ranging from what can be done about the high price of gas to the war of Iraq to increasing pressures on the middle class, during a live online chat at midafternoon today.

In answer to one of the questions, the Rhode Island Democrat acknowledged that he has not yet decided whom he will vote for as a superdelegate to the presidential campaign.

"I have not made a decision with respect to the candidacies of either Senator Clinton or Senator Obama," he said. "I am confident that both are eminently qualified to serve. I recognize that we should determine a nomination in the next several weeks in order to prepare for the fall campaign."

See more of what the Rhode Island Democratic senator had to say, in a transcript of the chat, hosted by Journal staff writer G. Wayne Miller.

As with all chats on projo.com, Reed was given the option of choosing the questions to answer. Answers were also be limited by the amount of time available.
