Thank you Russell. Yes a known good image would be helpful for troubleshooting purposes. I'll give it a shot.

I thought that the ssk key injection was a onetime thing at first boot and by booting my image to make changes was affecting how cloud-init was working when I launched an image. So I went back and created a master image without cloud-init so that I could make changes to the image as needed and then install cloud-init as the last step before powering down the image. Then I ran "glance image-create" with that image so that when an instance was launched cloud-init would be run for the first time. That didn't seem to matter. Still no keys in "authorized_keys" file for root or "cloud-user". I used Wire shark to watch the traffic to the meta-data server and I can even see the ssh keys coming back to the VM. I just don't see them in the authorized_keys file anywhere.

Do you just want an image with cloud-init working, or do you need your own image right now?

You can use some pre-built Fedora testing images that are lying around.
 Here's a Fedora 18 image with cloud-init:
