One more reason to love Kucinich

He thinks Bush needs to have his head checked : "You cannot be a president of the United States who's wanton in his expression of violence," Kucinich said. "There's a lot of people who need care. He might be one of them. If there isn't something wrong with him, then there's something wrong with us. This, to me, is a very serious question."

What the hell are you talking about? Are you trying to bill Perot and Paul as somehow progressive insurgents? Are you trying to say Nader is anything but an egotistical idiot? Conyers and Rangel would have NOTHING to do with a racist like Ron Paul. And Carter, who I love, really is about as mainstream as you get.

So as far as I can tell your comment makes no logical sense.

Words to live by

Front-runners are usually focused on racing each other. They often do not realize that when people cannot decide between two leading candidates -- and it doesn't matter whether we are talking about politicians or consumer appliances -- our decision can be subtly swayed by whoever is in third place.

Psychologists call this the decoy effect: In a perfectly rational world, third candidates should only siphon votes away from one or both of the leading contenders. Under no circumstances should they cause the vote share of either front-runner to increase. In the actual world, however, third candidates regularly have the unintended effect of making one of the front-runners look better than before in the minds of undecided voters.
