Anyone have any idea what Kucinich was hinting at on Randi Rhodes?
DK was talking to The Godess a few minutes ago and hinted
that something big was coming. Said she might want to talk
to him in the next couple of days.

I can't stand it! What?...What?!

2. That's all I know! I'm trolling for details.
They had a short phone conversation (gawd he needs a new phone).
Then Randi (genuflect) said they'd talk again at the Democratic
convention, in a week. Then DK said very pointedly that something
might happen in the next couple of days that will make her want
to talk sooner...

Damn! And she let him off the phone. I woulda badgered him.
Woulda been futile, but still...

34. It was a very cryptic, yet pointed comment at the end of the interview...
said twice that she should keep in touch.... and then something to the effect that she might want to get back in contact in a few days....


Given the RW's full court effort to talk up the "Berger" story--whatever that might be, there surely has to be something about to break. Plame indictments? More on the IRan issue that adds embarrassment? Unexpected scathing details from the 911 report? Hmmm...

8. :) Good guess... Granted that'd be a bombshell. But...
Edited on Tue Jul-20-04 04:30 PM by Myra
The convention's a week away.
And he said something "might happen in the next couple of days."

I can't stand it.
I can't eat; I can't sleep...
Well, I can eat.

On edit:

Then after I eat I get sorta sleepy.

On pretend edit:

(Yes, I'm plagerizing That 70's Show. I only steal from the best.)

6. Something "big" has been on it's way any day now
for the last 30 days or more, it seems. I'm beginning to doubt all these 'something big' claims.

7. I just hope DK doesn't decide to do the independent route
Edited on Tue Jul-20-04 04:36 PM by rmpalmer
And this is not a bash - just a fear. Nader's enough trouble.

On edit I bet it's the Progressive Dems thing he's doing with Dean.

10. Oh no! He *won't* go indy. He's supporting Kerry, raising money for him.
He's not a human torpedo like some...
He's a smart savvy pol, who is also a progressive (imagine that).
He's stayed in the campaign to get delegates to give input into the
party platform. Come convention time he'll throw in with Kerry
like the good soldier he is. He's not out to punish us like some...

Not to worry.

11. Give it up on that Independent rumor-mongering, eh?
It's been done to death already.

What are all of you so afraid of Dennis for......? What's that FEAR about?

He's worked his tail off for YOU, yet you're always so AFRAID he's selling you out.....

And, yes, your fear-mongering is a bash......

12. That's a good point yankeedem
I sorta thought everything in the report had already been leaked
(to set up the next PNAC invasion of Iran).
But maybe there's more.

14. Indictments on the Plame outing?

Stories a week or two ago said that indictments on "big names" in the white house would be coming out shortly. Wonder if this is it.

26. I'm sorry but that word really gets under my skin.
It's not an "outing." The Bush* Administration BLEW THE COVER OF AN AMERICAN AGENT. We can't let them off the hook with mild language.

Okay, rant's over. Back to our regular program.

23. That was a foregone conclusion
DNC gave him the option of being nominated, or speaking.

Likely he will speak on Tuesday (platform day, if I remember correctly....)

Answer: She makes Gephardt look bad.

:)

Seriously, I think Pelosi is great...so far.
I'd like to see what she can do in a Dem adm.

So I hope the DK news is something else, and I'm sure it is.

Kucinich to endorse Kerry for president

Democrat Dennis Kucinich, who has remained in the presidential race despite John Kerry's obvious lock on the party's nomination, will formally throw his support to the Massachusetts Democrat on Thursday.

The Ohio congressman, who has waged a long-shot bid for right to challenge President Bush in November, will announce the endorsement during a joint appearance with Kerry in Detroit, according to spokesmen for both candidates.

* * *

Doug Gordon, a spokesman for Kucinich, said the congressman looked forward to the endorsement.

"The congressman looks forward to appearing with John Kerry tomorrow and unifying the Democratic Party in support of Senator Kerry's winning bid for the White House," Gordon said Wednesday night.
