Rev. Jesse Jackson backed off his criticism of Rep. Artur Davis
Thursday night, issuing a statement saying he has "abiding admiration"
of the Alabama Democrat.
"I
talked to Congressman Artur Davis today to assure him of my abiding
admiration of him as a leader who is engaged in a huge challenge,"
Jackson said in the statement, obtained by The Hill through a
congressional source. "I offer no challenge to his integrity as a
leader. Representatives should all vote their conscience in the
interest of their constituency."
