According to the Nation, "A vote for (Kucinich) would be a principled one."

That's a laugh!

The only principle Dennis has is getting elected, and he cares not what the office. He has campaigned for City Councilman, Clerk of Court, Mayor, State Representative, Governor, City Councilman again, State Senator, U.S. Congressman, and President. I don't think he has ever held a job in the private sector. He is greedy for office as some are greedy for money.

I have never agreed with his politics but I used to have a grudging respect for the guy when he was that rarest of animals: a pro-life Democrat. When he began hallucinating that he could be President, he sold out and received in return less than 4 percent of the votes in Democratic presidential primaries in 2004. The price of Kucinich's principles is not high.

Do we want as President someone who spouts nonsense like this (from a speech at the Praxis Peace Institute Conference, in Dubrovnik, Croatia in 2002): "Spirit merges with matter to sanctify the universe. Matter transcends to return to spirit. The interchangeability of matter and spirit means the starlit magic of the outermost life of our universe becomes the soul-light magic of the innermost life of our self."

Profound, ain't he?

As President, Dennis "The Menace" Kucinich will embarrass the people of America as he embarrassed Cleveland residents back in the 1970s.
