consider just saying you're for kucinich

next time you are polled, consider saying you are for dennis kucinich. you don't have to mean it, nobody will follow you into the booth & check, i'm not asking anyone to send money. i am interested in how a 15% - 20%, bump in his numbers would affect the dynamics of the race, also how it might affect the dynamics of congressional workings.
a lot of people here seem very upset by the presidential semi pardon, it has apparently pushed some over the impeachment edge. one candidate has actually introduced an impeachment resolution, only one. be nice if he at least got some lip service.
a lot of folks here would like us out of iraq, like yesterday - one candidate not only voted against the authorization, but has actively worked to defund the occupation. yep, congressman ugh.

after the release of michael moore's latest movie, quite a few have come to the realization that "for profit" is antithetical to universal health care. mr kucinich has been preaching take the profit incentive out of health care for a long time now.
yeah, i know, he's short. he's got big ears. he starts singing tennessee ernie ford songs at inappropriate times. all the better, if his numbers start to pick up over all those handsome devils he's running against, some clever pollster or pundit will be led to the inescapable conclusion that his numbers are policy, not personality, driven. how horrible would that be?
hey the actual primaries are months off. could be that if kucinich's numbers ballooned up, al gore might see his way to run, ala rfk when mccarthy polled decently.
if the primary in az was tomorrow, i'd vote for dennis. i'd vote for him knowing he won't win because i believe in his message & i'd not think for a second that i'd wasted my vote. i'm not asking for anyone to vote for congressman kucinch, i am asking that you consider telling the next pollster who asks that you favor him. lying to pollsters isn't really lying, is it?
