I am giving props to the Kooch....
As if anything could ever cause one to waver on the big dog.... as if anything could make one waver on the big dogs wife.... as if anything and I mean anything could cause wavering on any politician running this cycle for president.... it would be the fringe candidates fate that gets the wavering as the big media market of presidential hopeful poster candidates are broad-casted selling their commercialized thought patterns into our commercialized brains...

Every step, every turn the Kooch has been real... that sort of real that happens when some stranger jumps out of their car and comes running over to you, where you are sitting hunched over your steering wheel after you've been side swiped and slammed into the center median and this stranger is trying to access whether you are are ok or not... or as real as the person who says enough to the group of thugs harassing you on your way home from the store, even as real as the kid who calls you back to give you your wallet that fell out of your pocket while you were sitting on the bench... That is the realness of the Kooch and if you vote for him or not that choice is always about you.

1. Considering Ron Paul as VP is certainly real
real dumb.

I like the guy. I like most of his votes. President? Nah.

4. 1. He told an audience he was considering Ron Paul and sang Paul's praises
2. Paul Inc said they would never do it
3. Dennis supporters complained, citing the fact that it was one of the dumbest ideas ever
4. Dennis says it isn't happening.

I have all the info. Dennis had an awful idea that got rejected, so now he is done with that idea.

5. I'll bet if Ron Paul changed from Republican to DLC, you would be his biggest supporter, right?
Just a hunch......

6. Ah yes, anyone who doesn't support Kucinich/Paul 08 is a DLCer
My last picks for 08 are Kucinich and Clinton. I like Dennis' voting record. I like Dennis in the house. Does it trouble you that I can't fit into a neat little box?
As one of the biggest Kucinich/Paul-gate apologists on DU, I wonder if would be cool with Kucinich/Cheney 08. Hmm....

8. So, you prefer a liberal Democrat like Nixon? Because that's how far to the right our party has been
pushed. It's insane that Kucinich is considered fringe when he's really just s left winger.

11. the absurdity that Nixon was a liberal democrat
is one of DUs cute myths. He wasn't really, but never mind facts and history. China and some relatively benign domestic policies don't make him one. And the reason Dennis in considered fringe has little to do with his political positions. Guess who isn't considered fringe? Bernie. That's right, we have a Socialist sitting in the Senate who is not considered fringe. Why do you think that is?

7. All that post proves...
...is that Dennis is a flip-flopper.

9. Sorry, not you're not ready for prime time, but keep working on it. Maybe by the time
the strike is over this June, you'll have something really funny worked out.
