One quote explains the vile, pre-emptive attacks on Kucinich that are again coming out of nowhere. [View All]

"President Obama told the committee chairman, George Miller, to oppose Kucinich's amendment, and he did so, leading off the voting with a resounding 'No.'"

Just like in July, when we saw a barrage of disproportionately vile and similarly worded attacks on Kucinich when the healthcare debate began, and single payer was being shoved off the table. Today the bashers are out in full force. What is motivating them to come out on Democratic Underground, looooooong after the primary, and use that nasty, glib tone to smear Dennis Kucinich and his supporters?

I don't even love his political style, but something is very fishy about the tenor, timing, and similarity of these attacks, isn't it?
