…like the thrill that'll get ya when ya get yer picture…

…on the cover of Roll Call, if you happen to be an up and coming Congressional candidate.



Yep, that's Darcy, and here's what the Beltway bigshots are saying...
...Reichert may have to fight tooth-and-nail to become a sophomore.

Reichert represents a classic swing suburban district outside of Seattle that is becoming more Democratic. Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) took the 8th district with 51 percent of the vote in 2004, compared to President Bush’s 48 percent, and Reichert won with just 52 percent last time.

“The 8th is a swing, Democratic district,” concedes Reichert’s political consultant Bruce Boram. “Any Democratic opponent who runs against Reichert starts at 43 percent [of the vote].”

...the district “is definitely trending in the Democrats’ favor,” and “it’s an environment where you have to take that seriously,” Boram added.
Yeah, folks, that's his consultant, even if it sounds like a press release from Burner for Congress.

Darcy Burner's standout fundraising performance for Q1 has, as expected, launched her into the national spotlight. She's about to get attention and targeting that no Democrat in WA-08 has ever had.

Celebrate the good news. Chip in a couple of bucks to keep building the buzz.

Hat tip to Eli Sanders at Slog, who liberated a good chunk of the Roll Call piece.
