20. Well, yes...he is disappointing that he can't get impeachment to happen!
Impeachment is called for but Kucinich doesn't have the Washington skills to get others to go along. Likely, he should have made the case for illegal behaviors more public before calling for an impeachment hearing. For whatever reasons, the rest of Congress and the general public, outside of DUer's, don't get excited about impeachment. DK is all emotion and not enough logic. Waxman is a good lawyer and too slow.

I wrote Pelosi, and I want shrub and his sidekick in jail, but I have the feeling that if Hillary or Obama or Edwards called for impeachment, they would be more likely to get serious consideration because they balance rhetoric with political thinking that gets support from the Congress and "uninformed" public. I even think Randi Rhodes makes a better case than DK.

I like Kucinich's positions best, but objectively, he isn't the winner to most of the public. He'd be a better advisor (the Democratic version of Karl Rove) and much better to create policy than Dean. He doesn't seem like the president to me.
