Kucinich

I basically can't stand Dennis Kucinich. He's the worst kind of progressive--knee-jerk, espousing kooky ideas about aliens, homeopathic medicine and other absurdities, etc. He provides the conservatives a perfect example of what we are.

But at least Kucinich finally came off his health care high horse and is voting for the damn bill. Anyone who doesn't vote for the bill from the left should be primaried out--not because of their positions but because they are terrible politicians who don't understand how politics are played. The idea that this bill is not better than nothing is absurd and irresponsible. For all the eye-rolling moments Kucinich provides me, at least he gets the political game.
