Doug Cloud has run for U.S. Congress a total of three times against U.S. Representative Norm Dicks.  Yesterday's campaign kick-off marks Cloud's 4th attempt to unseat Representative Dicks should he garner the votes necessary to move past the primary this August.  "I'm humbled by this showing of support," said Cloud.  "This fantastic turnout is a testament to the people of the 6th District being tired of the same old political games and partisan agendas.  Our campaign is building momentum because our message of fiscal responsibility, taking back our constitutional freedoms, and cleaning up corruption in Congress resonates with voters.  True representation in Congress should mean true benefit for the people.  We will not stand idly by and watch another two years go by wasted.  We need to keep more of the tax payers' money in their pockets, and of the money the government does collect, we will see to it that it is managed responsibly, unlike these years past.  I will fight for accountability in Congress.  The people of the 6th District demand it."     ### Paid for by the Cloud for Congress Campaign, Inc.
