But Kucinich also possesses one of the most anti-abortion voting records of any Democrat in Congress.

You can argue that Kucinich had his change of heart after much reflection and deep thought, and you can argue that the decision was wholly independent of the realization that he'd look like an asshole if he went into the Democratic campaign season as a foe of reproductive freedom. You can argue these points, but probably not successfully.


If any other candidate had undergone such a significant and conspicuously-timed change of position, I doubt you'd be as willing to believe the integrity of that candidate's claims.
