Reply #49: Kucinich is nothing more than fodder for late night comics [View All]

Department of Peace? give me a break. he'll be ripped to shreds and regarded as a joke. Plus while opposing the invasion of Iraq is the right stance, there is no way a pacifist who wants to seriously cut the defense budget will win in post-9/11 America. Nor will the head of the Progressive Caucus, which is often considered the socialists in Congress. And I have no problem with that, I LOVE socialism, but it will not be electable. And then there's his executive experience. He bankrupted Cleveland. Not exactly the best record.

The only scenario in which Kucininch wins is if he invents a mindcontrol potion and dumps it into all major drinking water sources. Everyone will become a zombie and vote for him and he carries all 50 states. Otherwise he makes McGovern look like LBJ.
