Reply #37: So true; you make me very happy with this post.

Your guy is starved of attention too, because he's so absolutely dangerous to the monarchist greedheads that to even mention him is tantamount to admitting that he really exists.

Kucinich is a truly honorable guy, and there's an ethical through-line to his positions. To have been religious, anti death penalty, and pro-life is consistent and based on ethical grounds. He has adjusted his views--like the one on the latter--as he recognizes things and grows, and he's truly ethical.

It makes perfect sense that he and Edwards really like each other on a personal level, and it makes perfect sense that their supporters are tolerant and friendly. You fit the personal conceit of that characterization, as do most other Kucinich and Edwards supporters.

You have to look hard and wide to hear recriminations and attacks from a supporter of either, and to my chagrin, I'm responsible for many.

Something in me still holds out the hope that Junior's so hated that we could have an anti-republican replay of 1976, but on a grander scale; in that case, Kucinich could have a shot. (Um...I still like Edwards more, but I really like Dennis; he's a titan.)
