|
Why offer it, then recind it?
Did they do this for publicity, to generate excitement? They had to know what would happen.

3. Kucinich dared to ask for a recount... |
|
The media is in the business of pretending nothing is wrong. Kucinich is in the opposite business.

4. I know its nice to have DK but........... |
|
I actually want to hear the 3 front runners go at it now hammers and tongs, having DK will just restrict time when really he has no shot at winning.

everyone has been saying 'he has no shot at winning' for the last 4 years (until their voices gave out.)
Don't let the flag fool you. I'm a dual citizen and get to vote but I am 'undecided' - I don't know if I can in good conscience vote for any of the 'front runners'.

6. Well, Kucinich tells the truth about the U.S., and that scares corporations including the media ones |
|
By putting him in there, Kucinich will keep the conversation on focus, about the truth, rather than about bullshit.

7. probably the same reason why the "cool" teens invite the nerd to the parties |
|
and tell them the wrong type of outfit, or the wrong location, or the place where the kids who failed the test (because the nerd threw the curve way out of joint) would beat the nerd up ...

9. First they invited him. Now ask yourself: who might have gotten to them? |
|
Hmm, who else's surrogates are going to court to try to limit democracy in Nevada? Hint, that case is aimed to hurt Obama.

|

NBC invited him.
The CEO of General Electric made a phone call.
NBC uninvited him.
