This Kucinich fan thinks Hillary should stay in the race

[Truth2Tell]

As a long time supporter of the Presidential campaigns of Dennis Kucinich I think I would be a hypocrite if I were to call for the withdrawal of Hillary Clinton from the present primary fight. Over and over I have argued that long-shot bids serve the democratic process and strengthen both the Party and our candidates. It would be silly for me to change my tune now.

Therefore I hereby declare that Hillary should stay in the race as long as she likes, regardless of the delegate count or the odds of winning. Go nuts Hillary - ride that train all the way to Denver.

(For the record, I do think Hillary's tactics have been way out of line. Praising the Republican candidate at the expense of a Democratic opponent and complicity in racial mud-slinging - among other abuses - are uncool, to say the least. The comparison to a long-shot Kucinich campaign ends when one examines tactics. I hope that's clear.)

But clean up your act Hillary... and I have no beef if you wanna keep speaking 'til the audience has all left the building. Knock yourself out. Many people I admire have done the same. Far be it from me to suggest dropping the curtain.

1. I to was a Kucinich supporter... but I don't think that Hillary should stay in the race...

if (as it looks now) she has no chance of winning. It is counter productive to Barack Obama with her hanging in. The Democratic Presidential nominee needs all the time "He" can get to be ready for November.

2. This Kucinich supporter thinks that it is LONG past time for her to step down.

She is destroying the heart and soul of the party.

3. Dennis Kucinich....if only our Party had the guts to back this guy. He is the BEST

of what we're supposed to stand for.
