"I'd rather Obama didn't work with the Republicans too."

...comparing Obama to Kucinich? I mean, Obama isn't a paid Murdoch contributor.

DK has always promoted what he believes, he's been correct far more often than, the craven "centrists". And now that you finally managed to remove this thorn in your conscience, he's still going to be out there telling people what they should know rather than what you all would like them to believe.

.Dennis Kucinich debuts as a Fox News contributor
Kucinich — who had teased his new gig by writing on Twitter earlier Thursday that he was a “rooster in Fox lair” — made his first appearance as a contributor with Fox on “The O’Reilly Factor." Before Kucinich went on-air to discuss gun control, Reilly joked that he was introducing “another wild conservative guy” as the network’s newest addition.
..
Kucinich responed by praising Fox News for letting him participate in a debate during his last presidential run, noting that “there was another network that didn’t.” MSNBC excluded Kucinich from a 2008 Democratic presidential debate.

Is this the set up for ruining Fox?

Seems like this is going to be more like a polite love fest.

Fox demonstrated fairness for the democratic process , where those who favored the left favored silence. This time, i side with fox.

Fox was being contrary and self-serving. Do not asign pure motives to that channel ever.

I mean, a station that promotes racism (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10022210358) and propaganda isn't standing up for democracy.

It can't be all wrong. As much as I despise them. I suspect , Kucinich in his well mannered method, will bring a ray of wisdom to Fox. If not , he'll leave . Should they deny him that chance. Kucinich is now free to be independent. Attack the right where he wants , and call out liberals when we betray our principals. And don't say that does not happen.
