:hi:

GO KOOCH! :loveya:

[robinlynne]

30. kooch? really? Kooch?

just teasing...

[MrCoffee]

6. well, Dennis introduced Articles of Impeachment on the House floor

and 15 kinds of hell broke loose, the Repugs played Nancy Pelosi and Steny Hoyer for utter chumps, and Dennis won me over.

10. Kos has a pretty good synopsis

Sans Drama. It was bizarre.

21. Kos hates DK.

I'm curious to know how the guy who voted for Reagan and Bush et. al. framed this...

But not THAT curious.

[MrCoffee]

9. already planning on it. i'm starting with $33.30

[helderheid]

15. I like how you think!

[asdjrocky]

14. Called his office today

He is truly a one in a generation mind. (Yes I took that from an episode of West Wing.) While I've supported JE for some time, I have given money to both. It was amazing what he did today... now what do you think the pugs are up to?

[mmonk]

5. Yes he is.

Thanks for mentioning.

[bigwillq]

7. Dennis is the best candidate we have!

Thank you DK! :bounce:

[MrCoffee]

11. he's apparently the only one WE have

you put the emphasis on the wrong syllable.

[bigwillq]

16. Thanks for correcting that for me!

:bounce: :hi: :)

[harun]

33. I think you are right, if there is anyone else walking the walk

you let me know. Because I see only Kucinich.

12. Please go to your caucus and stand for Dennis Kucinich

In many (most?) states, the primary is a non-binding beauty contest, with the actual delegates to the National Convention (which is where the presidential candidate is actually named) being picked by the caucuses. Vote, yes, but DO NOT FORGET TO ATTEND YOUR CAUCUS. Contact your local party officials to find out when and where; they are obligated by law to provide the correct information.

[MrCoffee]

17. dude, i'm in Seattle, can i get a ride?

[TechBear_Seattle]

29. I don't own a car, sorry

I will be at the 43rd District Caucus, though. :hi:

[bonito]

19. He is the best candidate by far

But last week he brought up legislation to ban handguns and I'm afraid this was a mistake for his campaign.

[redqueen]

20. You thought he wasn't?

Wow.

[MrCoffee]

23. honestly, i hadn't given him much thought. that was damn stupid of me.

glad i woke up in time.

[redqueen]

25. Nah, really it's perfectly understandable.

He rarely gets much metion, and when he does it's usually done with the snide mockery that we see so often even around here.

So... I'm just glad to know you didn't come around from actively thinking he was worthless / hopeless / embarassing. That "180" had me all WTF?!

:hi:

[EFerrari]

22. Yes, he is. n/t

[The_Casual_Observer]

24. Where have you been all these years?

[Alexander]

26. He's got my vote for today's actions, that's for sure.

[cali]

27. He is good people and I love him for trying today

it was ugly and it can't be easy to go up against that kind of crap. I didn't think much of Dennis until I started reading his proposals- and they're well though out and not "kooky".

I just wish he ran a better campaign.

[OzarkDem]

28. He's principled, he's smart, he's a fighter

and you can always count on him to do the honorable thing, regardless of the consequences. He's also amazingly good at negotiating w/ opponents and consensus building - skills he developed more in the second half of his political career.

I lived in his district for several years and never had to worry about how he voted or which positions he took on issues. He's also one of the best campaigners I've seen, very good at it.

31. Welcome aboard the D-train

:hi:

32. Kucinich definitely earned my vote today

I'll be making a donation in the near future (and I'm a poor college student to boot!) to his campaign.
