Hi, my name is Bruce Braley and I'm running to win an open seat race in Iowa's 1st Congressional District.

I've been asked by several members of the dKos community to introduce myself, so I'm posting here the profile I wrote for Democracy for America's Grassroots All-Star competition, where we finished in the top 10 among over 60 progressive House candidates nationwide.

My race has been targeted as one of the top pick-up opportunities in the
country by many people, including several on this site.
