Sen. Hillary Clinton gave a fundraising boost to Sen. Maria Cantwell's re-election Friday, headlining a Seattle luncheon that attracted more than 1,200 people, according to the Cantwell campaign.
The crowd paid $150 to $1,200 a plate to hear the first-term New York senator, considered in political circles as a leading contender for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008 and either the best or worst decision the party could make in its effort to recapture the White House. The lunch, inside Qwest Field, was closed to the media. The Cantwell campaign declined to say how much money was raised.

A group of Democratic military veterans issued a letter criticizing Clinton for holding a fundraiser they said could siphon away money from local Democratic candidates and for "your strong support for the immoral war in Iraq."
One of the veterans involved in the protest letter was Jim Rassman, who credited 2004 Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry with saving his life during combat in Vietnam, and who campaigned for him.
