I'd like to say that it
couldn't happen to a nicer fellow but that would be stretching the point
beyond breaking. As Politico points out, he's already running for his
life:
Kucinich,
a two-time presidential candidate just elected to an eighth term in his
Cleveland-area seat, is already in reelection mode. He's reaching out
to voters and blasting e-mails to his local and national supporters in
anticipation of an uncertain fate in 2012 - a surprisingly urgent pace
that reflects the gravity of the situation confronting the outspoken
liberal lawmaker.
With
newly released census figures showing Ohio will lose two seats in
reapportionment, there is widespread speculation that Republicans in the
state Legislature will eliminate Kucinich's seat outright - a move that
could force the veteran congressman either to retire or to run in a
Democratic primary against one of his neighboring colleagues, Reps.
Betty Sutton or Marcia Fudge.
Just
before the end of the year, Kucinich sent an e-mail to his supporters
headlined "My Congressional District May Be Eliminated," warning: "We
are going to have to prepare for a different kind of election, possibly
in a different place because my district may be eliminated. We are going
to have to organize in a different way now."
Sorry Dennis, but my "My Give a Damn's Busted".

+5We're set to lose a seat in Mass. GOOD! Less looney libs in Congress. Now this will be a show to watch. To what lengths will the corrupt folks on Beacon Hill go in order to save Barney Frank?
See ya Dennis.
"The energy of the stars becomes us. We become the energy of the stars. Stardust and spirit unite, and we begin: One with the universe. Whole and holy. From one source, endless creative energy, bursting forth, kinetic, elemental. We, the earth, air, water, and fire source of nearly 15 billion years of cosmic spiraling" (remarks to Praxis Peace Institute, June 9, 2002).
Brilliant isn't he? LMAO! Yep he's a real Barney Fife.
Dennis is a kook that has been supported by the blacks in his District for years.
He needs to be retired, and the other Democrats in this area booted out as well.
Ill be working anyone's campaign that puts these two out of office.
