Valerie Plame, the former CIA operative who was outed as a spy by top officials in George W. Bush's administration in the Iraq War, is running for Congress in New Mexico.

Valerie Plame, the former CIA operative who was outed as a spy by top officials in George W. Bush's administration in the early months of the Iraq War in 2003, is running for Congress in New Mexico.

She told the Associated Press in early April,"I have a lot to learn and I would like another opportunity to serve my country," adding, that she was looking at the House seat to"continue Ben Ray’s legacy.” On her campaign website, she elaborates on the other significant issues she plans to tackle to make a"brighter future for New Mexicans," including: protecting clean air and water, equal voting rights, gun control, public education, strengthening the economy, and reducing poverty and homelessness.

Eight days after Wilson published his op-ed, columnist Robert Novak identified Plame as an"agency operative on weapons of mass destruction," and cited two senior administration officials in his piece"Mission to Niger".
