Former CIA operative Valerie Plame (D) released an ad resembling a movie trailer, “making the case to New Mexico voters why she’s running for Congress as she drives a Chevy Camaro backwards,” The Hill reports.
Said Plame: “I come from Ukrainian Jewish immigrants. My dad was in the Air Force, my brother almost died in Vietnam. My service was cut short when my own government betrayed me.”
Former CIA officer Valerie Plame told The Hill that she is considering a potential run for Senate in New Mexico as a Democrat to replace retiring Sen. Tom Udall (D-NM).
Said Plame: “I am considering all my options. I am grateful for the opportunity to perhaps serve my country again.”
