2. Well, aren't they just saying he didn't get to speak that much?
Looks like Obama could cut down on his time with less hemming and hawing...

3. Dodd didn't get much more, I see. It's ridiculous, especially
so to see that Wolf got so much time when he's not even running. He does like to hear himself talk.
I wish someone would give Kucinich a national forum and actually respect and listen to him.

6. I agree
If more people heard him he would be beating all of them. But then the corporations can't have that can they?

:(

15. I think he should have asked for a chair for the first hour of the Democrat Show on CNN.
I could have watched Ugly Betty, and seen if Daniel makes up with Betty, since the DL crap went on forever. Good Lord, how long could people be distracted by the Lou Dobbs Show spinoff that went on for so long when there were actual issues to address?

5. yep, that sucks, particularly when compared to

8. The main difference being...
...that Richardson and Biden are actually running serious campaigns, whereas Kucinich isn't.

22. I don't think it's "venom" to suggest that he's not...
...running a serious campaign. I've yet to see any signs of serious organization for Kucinich on the ground in any of the early primary states, whereas I read reports from people who've been canvassing for Richardson all the time. At this point in time if a candidate doesn't have a serious organization on the ground, one of two things must be true: Either the candidate isn't running a serious campaign, or the candidate doesn't have any resources with which to mount a serious campaign. Either way a candidate in that position at this late date is basically hosed.

17. The Media would never do this without a wink and a nod
Edited on Fri Nov-16-07 09:28 AM by OHdem10
from Democratic Party.

I am not know for defending the Media. The Media cooperates
with either party in matters like this.

When the DLC wanted Howard Dean out of the race, the Media
helped. The Media would never have done this on their own.

The DLC could have stopped the Media. and they did not.
Lots of sources have said they were behind.

Add: To be fair the National Polls do give a clue as to whom
is catching on---Dennis has not drawn national numbers.
At least they permit him to participate and get some of his
message out.

19. Listening to Kucinich,
from a progresssive perspective, you have got to admit that he is on the correct side and says the correct thing on everything. So one must ask why he is not more popular?? Is it because:

--Progressive beliefs are in the minority

--People do not think Kucinich can actually deliver

--He is too short

Inquiring minds want to know!

23. none of the above
Edited on Fri Nov-16-07 10:46 AM by leftchick
when you can not get airtime from the corporate media or their money you get marginalized. He is a threat to them, it is as simple as that.
