Is Dennis Kucinich actually running in 2008?

[elshiva]

I didn't think he was...

If he is I don't know what I can do. Maybe hand out flyers, but I don't get around that much.

1. We don't know yet.

Its a little early.

[Mairead]

2. He "doesn't want to think about it right now"

But unless there's better support than there was last time, he won't. Only a fool would, and he's no fool.

As to what you can do--can you plan? Are you a person with many social connections?

[elshiva]

3. I have almost zero social connections.

I graduated from college and ever since then I see next to no one. I can pray...

[IndianaGreen]

4. We are going to need someone to oppose the prowar candidate(s)

As one that voted for Dennis in the Indiana primary, I hope he runs!

[Mairead]

5. "I hope he runs!"

Speaking to a group of his followers, he riffed on the Matrix line, saying 'I'm not the one you're looking for: you are!' That feels like a message, to me, how about you?

He'd be a fool to half-kill himself again trying to swim up that effing waterfall a second time. The only way it could work out is if we flatten out the waterfall first. But that would mean those of us who want to see him in office actually doing something about it in a purposeful, coherent, and sustained way. I don't see that happening. I see lots of lip-service and wishful thinking, but nothing more.

(And yes, I feel both saddened and angry about that lack of energy. It sucketh like a Vax. The only thing keeping me from really showing everyone here my six-inch fangs and claws is that I'm busy working with some other superannuated folk on a more general solution.)
