See if he sells out. It always seems in the long run to be about the money.
If he wants to keep his job, he’ll have to tow the line. He has always been one of my favorites. It will be a shame to see him fall from grace. My bet is he will fold. Money always wins out. By the way, being another Allan Colmbs (sic) is a sell out

this is the guy who ran for President on a platform that really wasn't geared to win. No, he has his principles.

Well you know what I think.

...now, on FOX, surely, that IS what it's about.

And, hopefully, that will not change his positions, and he'll be allowed to elaborate on those positions, not simply be a Colmes-like "token librul."

And now he's on Fox? LOL, he must be desperate for cash.

Kucinich was obviously never in politics for the money and that was evident when the net worth of each primary candidate was revealed. Kucinich really didn't have a lot of assets, but with a semi-celebrity like exposure (at least as far as House reps go), I'm sure he's done better over the last few years.

I don't begrudge the guy for wanting to make some money now that he's out of politics, but I can think of much better ways than being a "contributor" to the Evil Empire Network.
