He's 67. I know we have many in public office way beyond that age. But I don't think he could or would want to run again for Congress. Maybe a local office like Cleveland mayor (again) or state senator.

If you're not moving upward, you're pretty much done, I think. A few people like Jerry Brown, in California, can make a comeback, but it's rare.

Too bad. I like Kucinich.

Who isn't? Except those that are the have mores, every one else is just pissed on from above.

Kucinich fought the good fight and he's lost. The corruption, the killing, the defense budget... he fought a lonely battle and they beat the crap out of him and us little people.

Most people don't even think voting is worth their trouble, and they have good reasons for not being bothered. And it is our hierarchy of politicians who are to blame. Me? Fuck 'em. I'll vote every chance they give me. Which ain't much.

But some of us say they want unity and a strong GOTV effort in 2014.

Then we see posts like this trying to pick at a barely healed scab.

Perplexing it is.
