Okay, here's my thing on Kucinich. I think the impeachment play was brilliant. Not because it's going to work—it's going to get him laughed out of Congress. But why? Nothing he's said, as far as I know, is false. Bush has the lowest approval rating ever. Most Americans want out of Iraq. If you put down all the facts, your average working stiff would be like, "Huh, yeah, I can see a case for that."

And yet it's still going to fail like a giant sinking failboat, thus illustrating how entirely unresponsive and undemocratic the American political system is, even when individuals within in are well-meaning. I don't know if he actually intended that, but it's awesome nevertheless.

But if he's just faking the balls of steel thing, I think I can still outrun him.
