anti-kucinich (Nov 13 2003 00:04 GMT) - i've been wanting to put into clearer words my reasoning for ending my support for kucinich, because i've found that i'm actually anti-kucinich now. i haven't talked about this with any of the few people i know who still support him, because i didn't really have an argument against him. it was just my own bad experiences, and a vague feeling i had this these experiences were a reflection of the campaign. i just found an argument that puts my feelings in better words than i could: If running for the presidency was a left-wing essay contest, then we would all vote for Kucinich. |
