Coleman is running against incumbent Representative Howard Berman. In a growing trend of progressive Democrats opposing conservative ones, Coleman\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s campaign targets Berman, a Democratic Party incumbent who voted to authorize the use of force against Iraq. Whereas Berman believes that U.S. troops should remain in Iraq until a so-called \u00e2\u20ac\u0153victory,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d is achieved, Coleman supports an immediate withdrawal.
