Too Wacky Even for Me

The more I hear about this guy, the more I have to question the abilities (and motives?) of the SelectSmart link I put out a few days ago. I like new ideas and all, but this guy's got about as much chance of winning—and if elected, succeeding—as Al Sharpton.

Kucinich for President? (Promo) Craig Cox
If you’re looking for a word to describe your reaction to that announcement, you might try absurd. Or how about ludicrous? Here’s a 56-year-old congressman from a Rust Belt state with virtually no name recognition, no money, and a political résumé that only his opponents could love (Cleveland went bankrupt while he was mayor). He hangs out with New Age notables (Shirley MacLaine is his daughter’s godmother, Marianne Williamson a political adviser), confounds liberals with his pro-life/pro-choice abortion stand (he’s so serious about the sanctity of life that he eats a vegan diet, but does support Roe v. Wade), and believes the cornerstones of civilization consist of “polka, bowling, and kielbasa.”

Mmm. Vegan kielbasa.
