Darcy's message: I'm in to win

Darcy Burner has posted a message to supporters on her website about 2008:

Over the last several months, many of you have come to me and asked me to finish what we began in 2006. Recently Congressman Reichert has made clear once again how out-of-touch he is by supporting President Bush's plan to put more American troops into harm's way in Iraq, by voting against basic fiscal responsibility for our federal government, and by opposing worker's rights. In the face of his actions, I have realized that you are right.

We need a member of Congress who will work to build the country and the future we deserve. We need someone who will fight to ensure that we keep our promises to the young, to the old, and to all who contribute to making our county great. Thanks to all that you taught me and all you helped me build, there is nobody in a better position to win this seat than me.

So I am in.

But nobody can do this alone. I need to know you are with me. Please help by making a contribution of any size to show me that you'll be there for me again as we work for our shared priorities.

I am, once again, grateful for your support, and look forward to embarking with you on this journey.

The future looks bright, especially in the 8th Congressional District - Darcy Burner is running for Congress again. It's a great day for Washingtonian Democrats.
