I voted for Clint Didier and Brad Klippert when I mailed my ballot in. Although I am not a Republican, I try to do what is right and always vote for the man or woman who is best for the job.

I'm afraid Dan Newhouse would just be "more of the same" if he ever got to Washington. Meanwhile, Clint Didier wants to make real change and is not afraid to take on the republican establishment to do so. Clint has his heart in it! (Dan just wants the "job"!)

I am a veteran who currently works for the VA, but my last employer was Clint Didier.    I know that one of Clint’s priorities and passions is to serve and support active duty military members, veterans and their families.

The VA’s Mission statement is:
To fulfill President Lincoln's promise "To care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan" by serving and honoring the men and women who are America's veterans.

I have no doubt that Clint will work his hardest to help the VA complete their mission.  

When Newhouse  claims differently, he is just another professional politician, lying looking for votes.

CONSERVATIVE VICTORY FUND

The Conservative Victory Fund (CVF), the nation's oldest conservative campaign committee, endorses for election Clint Didier to the U.S. House of Representatives for the 4th District of Washington.

Didier is the son of a potato farmer and a farmer himself. He returned to his roots after a very successful career as an NFL tight end, helping his team win 2 of 3 Super Bowls. He bought his farm near the original family farm in eastern Washington. In addition to being a farmer, Didier owns a successful excavation company and spent 8 years as a high school football coach leading his team to two state championships.

In Congress Didier will:

" Be a champion for the people of Washington's 4th Congressional District.

" Fight to restore the proper role of government; one in which its primary purpose is to protect God given, unalienable rights such as life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

" Work to restore jobs and personal liberty by unshackling our industries and let them create more good paying jobs for the citizens of central and eastern Washington.

" Fight to rid our nation of Obamacare and restore that responsibility to the people and the states.


Didier is a leader who is a principled conservative and someone who has lived the American Dream. He is determined to protect the American Dream for future generations.

Conservative Victory Fund is proud to support Clint Didier for Congress.

The late conservative leader Congressman John Ashbrook founded Conservative Victory Fund (CVF) more than forty years ago. CVF works to elect a conservative majority to the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate.

SENATOR RICK SANTORUM
"We are pleased to endorse Clint Didier in his campaign for Congress.  Clint epitomizes the hard work and dedication it takes to rise and succeed in America.  When he was told he was too small to play football, Clint dedicated himself to proving his nay-sayers wrong - and proving them wrong he did by playing a decade in the NFL.  We are confident Clint will bring this commitment to success, and commitment to his country, with him to the halls of Congress. 

Clint's campaign is focused on rededicating our government to the basic purpose laid out in our Declaration of Independence - that our government is to be committed to protecting our God-given rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.  Clint has campaigned as a true conservative, and we are proud to support his grassroots campaign for Congress."

SWENSON FAMILY,
READ THE BLOG
Hey Central Washington you can make a fresh choice with no Yakima royalty connections.  Plus this retired Redskins tight end Clint Didier can really shake things up in Washington. When Nancy Pelosi, Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray bring up changing the Redskins name in US House. He can testify with his Redskins 86 jersey and helmet and say many Native Americans are proud an NFL team is call the Redskins. Remember it is the liberal Democrats who want to change the name not the actual Native Americans.  

Dan Newhouse's family has been in Yakima area politics since 1964 for over 50 years.  He believes he is entitled to be congressman. You know what? This area is tired of that type of politics. It is time to elect someone fresh and crisp like the Granny Smiths that grow their. Clint is that person.  

Central Washington, you can shake up DC, send a fresh crisp Redskin to Congress. He and Cathy McMorris Rodgers will send a message to liberals, stop messing with Eastern Washington and pay attention to Spokane, Yakima, Tri-Cities, Wenatchee, Stevens County and Okanagan Valley.

I may have been born in the Snoqualmie Valley 30 miles east of Seattle in King County. I graduated high school in Cle Elum in 1990 then went to college at Spokane Falls Community College in Spokane. From this current Alaska with Eastern and Central Washington still at heart.  Vote Clint Didier for Congress, send a message no experienced politicians like Dan Newhouse who thinks he deserves it because his family has represented Yakima for over 50 years.  Clint and Cathy would serve Central and Eastern Washington better.

SARAHPAC APPROVED: SARAH PALIN ENDORSES CLINT DIDIER
Clint Didier has lived an amazing life, and he has never forgotten where he came from or stopped helping others along the way. Born on a farm in Washington state, Clint got his hands dirty and learned the value of hard work early in life. After completing his education, Clint played in the NFL and in three Super Bowls, helping to win two of them. When he retired, he returned to what he knew best by bringing his family back to Washington state and returning to farming. Clint didn’t give up on football either; he’s coached his former high school team and led them to two State Championships. Now, Clint sees the dangers facing our next generation and is stepping up once again to serve our nation. In Congress, Clint will fight for farmers, for lower taxes, and less government. He understands hard work and the concerns of everyday Americans because he’s one of us. We need more citizens like Clint Didier in Congress. Let’s work together to send this champ to Congress!

- Sarah Palin

REPUBLICAN LIBERTY CAUCUS

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
RLCWA Recommends Clint Didier in the 4th Congressional District. 

The Republican Liberty Caucus of Washington State voted to recommend Clint Didier for the 4th Congressional District seat at their August 7th executive board meeting. RLCWA Chair Sandy Belzer Brendale said, “After refusing to take farm subsidies a few years ago, Clint now experiences the freedom of not being encumbered with the regulations attached to federal hand-outs. We need Congress to be exposed to this kind of thinking day in and day out.” She reported the committee was clear on who was the Liberty candidate and why the organization should support him.

The 4th Congressional District includes four RLC county organizations: Okanogan County, Grant County, Yakima County, and Benton County.The Republican Liberty Caucus of Washington is a grassroots membership organization with county chapters throughout Washington, promoting the traditional Republican Party values of limited government and individual liberty.

JOHN ORLINSKI, WA 1st Congressional District Candidate
Dear Mr. Didier,
I am John Orlinski and I have been running for the US Congress out of the WA 1st District.  We have done really well in our run and placed first amongst Republicans in the Skagit County and second in Snohomish County even though our campaign had been largely ignored or even boycotted by the Seattle Times and the Everett Herald. Despite of it, we have been able to gather support of 12,000 voters, built a solid foundation for the next run, and at the same time, we have been able to spread a populist and libertarian message of freedoms, liberties, and justice for all against the overwhelming forces of more and more intrusive federal government.

In this place, I would like to congratulate you on your win in the primaries and wish you a repeat in November.  You have been a lightening force for liberties in Eastern Washington and you have earned our endorsement in this race.  We are going to do all in our powers to support you in this race.

Clint Didier is the only candidate in this race who supports the Constitution and limited government. He does not owe anyone in the DC Establishment anything and his vote cannot be bought. Back on the East Coast I have supported Clint Didier since his 2010 Senate run and am proud to endorse him in the Primary on August 5! Please mail in your ballot for Clint Didier and send a message to the liberals from both parties! Thank you.

AMY KREMER
Amy Kremer, former Chairman of Tea Party Express and co-founder of Tea Party Patriots, has announced her endorsement of Clint Didier for Congress. Kremer released the following statement:

"As a professional football player and a small businessman, Clint Didier has lived the American dream.  

"On the football field, Clint played offense for the Washington Redskins and if elected, he will again go on offense in Washington to reign in the out of control spending and limit the intrusive arm of the government.  

"As a businessman, Clint understands that Washington is the problem and not the solution.  Clint is a true fiscal conservative that will work tirelessly to champion limited government policies that will lower taxes, cut spending and put the power back in the hands of the people and states, where it belongs.  

"It's time for real leadership in Washington and that means electing representatives that will stand on principle and make the tough decisions. Clint Didier isn't afraid of making tough decisions.  He won't be intimidated and he certainly won't back down.  He will stand up to Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and Barack Obama and even those in his own party.  

"I am proud to stand with and support Clint for Congress in Washington's 4th congressional district.  Clint has proven he is a strong fighter on the field and I believe he is exactly the type of fighter we need in Congress."

LEON HOWARD, SR.
West Richland, WA
As I see it, we have 2 distinct types of candidates vying for our votes and I label them here: Clint Didier is a statesman, much like Thomas Jefferson, and Dan Newhouse is a politician, much like Nancy Pelosi or Harry Reid! Clint has stated, repeatedly, his stand on the issues and Mr. Newhouse "waffles" on Obamacare and has refused to answer the Nat'l Assoc. of Gun Rights (NAGR) questionnaire! Clint has been endorsed by the NAGR, while Mr. Newhouse is relying on a 100% rating from the NRA ... The NRA gives the 100% rating to Harry Reid! The NRA has given this rating to many traitors over the years, so I rely on the NAGR for an accurate analysis!

FreedomWorks PAC Endorses Clint Didier in WA-04

Washington, DC- FreedomWorks PAC announced its endorsement of Clint Didier for U.S. Congress in Washington’s fourth district. After a thorough review of the candidates in the race, FreedomWorks PAC believes Clint Didier is the clear choice for Washingtonians looking to preserve individual freedom.

Didier had a nine-year career in professional football, playing for the Washington Redskins and the Green Bay Packers, and winning two Super Bowls. Concerned with unchecked federal power and spending, Didier became an active participant in tea party events. He has pledged to oppose all tax increases and to dismantle the federal Departments of Education and Energy.

FreedomWorks PAC President Matt Kibbe commented, “Clint Didier came to politics from a different path. Instead of just hoping that things would change in Washington, he took it upon himself to get active in his community and run for Congress. Congress needs more Didiers in DC who are willing to take leadership in the fight to restrain federal authority and spending.”

FreedomWorks PAC empowers activists by endorsing free-market candidates and providing the background research and analysis to help elect a new generation of principled, freedom-minded politicians to office. For more information about the PAC, please visit www.FreedomWorksPAC.org or on Twitter @FreedomWorksPAC.

Scott Hudson, Moses Lake
There is nothing more frustrating in Washington State politics than being a conservative on the East side. It seems like most of our votes don't really matter because 5 populous, progressive counties around Puget Sound control all statewide elections. Even when we do win, like Dino Rossi's victory for Governor, the Democrats find some spare ballots in a closet in order to steal the election.

The upcoming 4th district Congressional election gives us a chance to make a difference and the westsiders can't do anything about it! To me there is one obvious choice: Clint Didier. Clint is running for the right reasons. He loves his country and he believes it is not too late to put America back on the right track. We are currently at a tipping point. We don't have anymore time. We need to send a man to D.C. who will have immediate clout and influence and will roll up his sleeves and get to work. Clint Didier is not the candidate of the Republican establishment, he is the candidate of the people. He will not be working for the next election like most politicians, he will be working for the next generation!
To learn more about Clint Didier or to donate go to: didier4congress.org. Be ready to send in your primary ballots by August 5.

The Federal government is completely out of control. It's time for the Federal Government to be tied down by the chains of the Constitution. For this to happen we need to send Clint Didier to Congress. He is a genuine man with a good heart. A farmer gentleman. I look all around America and sadly I see a welfare state growing. The national debt skyrocketing. Lets send Clint to DC to stand up for us.

The farmer, the banker, the doctor, the shop keeper were the intended audience to be the congress person. They would meet for a brief period of time for a legislative session. After the session was complete the congress person was to get back to work at their real job. Congress was never intended to be a career. Clint has a real job to get back to, the intestinal fortitude to stand for what is right, and has been around the pasture enough to know what BS looks and smells like. His friends and family are here in the state of Washington, he will not sell them out.

Clint Didier is a lifelong resident of the the Fourth District. He understands the values and needs of the people in the Fourth Congressional District.

Vote Didier for Congress.

DON LARSON, West Richland
Is it time to take the professional politicians out of power and return Congress to the people? I think it is. To do that requires that we elect citizens that will go to the nation's capital, represent our interests for a short period, then return home to live under the laws they have enacted.Those we elect have to stand tall, speak loudly and convince their peers to return this country to what it was intended to be. They, with our help, need to return this country to our spiritual and constitutional roots. They need to act without regard for their own political future.

When I look at the slate of candidates for the 4th Congressional District, I see six politicians aspiring to higher office and two private citizens. One of the citizens is a successful farmer and employer with just enough campaign experience to win the election. In that farmer, I see a man who believes in the Constitution of the United States as written, not as some judges and political elite want it to be. I ask you to join me in supporting Clint Didier for Congress.
