The Moderate Voice: Kucinich recommends Obama & Clinton

  • DLS · 2 years ago
    Once it became evident that last night's debate wasn't going to be a battle but a fake love-fest, some Useful Idiots were thinking openly of what some of us had already thought about months ago -- that one alternative for the Dems would be Clinton-Obama in 2008. It's kind of like addressing "symbolic" nonsense versus substance -- some of us were discussing this ages ago, while lefties have just caught up to us this week.

    What is your point? That that's what Kucinich is referencing?
  • DLS · 2 years ago
    My point was that I've heard, related to support for both candidates, the idea now being floated in the media about a Clinton-Obama ticket, as if it's some fantastic conception of theirs, when plenty of us were aware of that possibility long, long ago.

    Sure - and that doesn't surprise you, right? It doesn't surprise me either. If we've learned nothing else this election cycle, we've learned that the traditional faces of news are SLOW. What I cannot figure out for the life of me is why why why they just cannot stop clinging. How low do they really want to go before they have to change and it won't be too late? I think they may just go down with the ship.

    They live in their own world, which has accompanied the growth of government in Washington as well as societal celebrity-fetish changes, and I believe it will get worse, not better, in the years to come.

    Ah - but its ranks will also diminish - by their own hand as well as natural attrition and people being less attracted to it/ by it - don't you think?

    News folks just need to get away from adding their opinions to things and just give us the facts. I find local news coverage to vastly superior to the major networks in this regard.

    Kucinich played this better than the last campaign. In 2004 nobody knew him. He resorted to playing a dating game to get attention. This time he had an entire country hungry to save us from Cheney fuck up. If you're listen to KPHX in Phoenix over the internet, they fall in love with him as the liberal Ron Paul.

    He knows Cimperman's going to get a war chest from Sam Miller. So he makes a presidential run and quits with his campaign cash transferred over to his Congressional run.

    What's Dennis going to do for us this time? Sly 'ol fucker. Thanks to him were all growing up in cars. Ferris or Palmer should really be our rep,

    Dweller - I'm not sure where I read it, but I think that Dennis has been told that he cannot use his campaign cash for his Congressional run. Here's a more recent piece, but I am pretty certain that I read that for some reason, he cannot roll the money over. I could, of course, be wrong.
