Smooch the Kooch!!!!!
Santa Fe New Mexico - Along with bright reflection from freshly fallen snow was the glow and buzz of Kucinich. In the rotunda of the capital building Kucinich spoke to the people who had gathered to hear his campaign trail strained voice. Along with his own calling for everyone to vote, their were Native Americans and Buddhist monks calling upon the universe to propel the "Peace" candidate into the White House.

"The world needs peace, the world needs to come to peace... the world needs healing... we all need to individually come from our hearts..." Kucinich called out, as I chased my screaming four year old from Senate Chambers to House Chambers. Later, my wife took our son and I was able to watch the chanting monks and the Native Americans ceremonially bless Kucinich and call upon the four directions to help guide him.

After, a reporter from the Journal out of Alberquerque interviewed me. He was surprised to find that I believed Kucinich could win... I said this is my government, this is your government, it is our government, I told him that the naysayers are creating a self-fulfilling prophecy, if everyone one voted with their hearts for the government they wanted they would vote Kucinich.

SMOOCH THE KOOCH!

1. I hope they publish your comments!
Glad you got to hear him speak. Sounds like a great event.

Danny Glover was on Tavis Smiley's show and he talked about Kucinich and why he supports him. I wonder how many people watch that show.

7. You all do know what "smooch the kooch" means, right?
Excuse me for having a dirty mind, but I'd watch it if I were you all.

8. Speaking of smooching the Kooch-
There is a new findraising effort underway via the volunteer network.

It's called "Kisses for Kucinich" and the idea is to send a Valentine's Day card to the campaign with $1 or more, cash or check inside the card. The hope is to raise a million through the campaign.

Distribute cards at your meetups, or make them yourselves and send them off ASAP!
