I think assuming that Kucinich will announce he's changed his vote, is one assumption too many

We'll find out soon enough if he has, but it wouldn't surprise me in the least if he announced today that he is not changing his vote.

2. Without the 2 essentials he based the possibility on,
I wouldn't want him to change his vote.

3. It would surprise me greatly, it's already been leaked
that he's changed his vote. I'll bet he's got his ear to the ground as far as his constituents in Ohio go.

4. I think that no matter which way he goes he has done the right thing
I trust him to make the right decision based on the information he has in front of him. I think that if he believes it best for his constituents to support the bill he will and if not, then not. But I trust him. No so with many others.

5. I'm hearing he will announce that he is going to be the next
SpiderMan. A startling career shift, I must say.

7. Good point. For 2 more minutes in the spotlight, he'd announce a "maybe" stance.

9. Either way, why a press conference?
The theater of this entire thing is just too much.

The DLC hates progressives and liberals and controls the purse strings of the Democratic Party.

16. AIPAC is an agent of influence outside of elected government office

and outside the parameters of the present discussion. I'm not really sure of the intent of such a response to my post.

18. Oh yeah. Remember when the DLC forever tarnished the image of innocent John Edwards?
They took him down because he was standing up to them! Or something.

22. If Rahm came to Kucinich and worked out a deal, I will be surprised.
Kucinich is no Joe Lieberman.
