Kucinich in 2008?

Yes, Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich has announced he is running for the presidency again. This time, though, he is planning a different strategy.

Instead of the failed 21st Century radical leftist campaign he ran in 2004, Kucinich is now planning on resurrecting the ghosts of the Eugene McCarthy and George McGovern campaigns in a rebirth of the "Make Love , Not War" theme of the 1960s.

Presumably, Kucinich's campaign will incorporate the words "Make Peace, Not War" as a clarion call to relive the Vietnam experience.

From a personal perspective, I'm glad Kucinich is in the mix of Dems running for Prez. He's somewhat of an embarrassment to the prudent political players in the party who must pretend to take him seriously. However, at the same time, he's the most reliable of all the accidental comedians the public will be forced to see, day in and day out.
