Web Site Accepts Lonely Hearts for Candidate
here ya go ladies!!
http://www.politicsnh.com/mrskucinich.html to apply

BOSTON (Reuters) - He may be trailing in his bid for president, but Ohio Democrat and bachelor Dennis Kucinich (news - web sites) could soon be king of the lonely hearts after describing his ideal first lady at a recent debate.

A political Web site, www.PoliticsNH.com, said on Friday it has begun accepting personal ads for the 57-year-old candidate, who pleaded for an outspoken, dynamic mate during a Wednesday forum on women's issues with other Democratic presidential contenders in New Hampshire.

"As a bachelor, I get a chance to fantasize about my first lady," Kucinich said. "I would definitely want someone who would not just be there by my side, but be a working partner because I think we're in a day and age when partnerships are imperative to making anything happening in the world."

"And I certainly want a dynamic, outspoken woman who was fearless in her desire for peace in the world and for universal single-payer health care and a full employment economy," the four-term congressman told the forum. "If you are out there call me."

1. I just loved that
and he had the other candidates rolling too.... did you see that forum? It was very nice. And no offense to anyone... but I think part of what helped was there were only 6 candidates there.

13. It's not exactly a "gotcha" photo
He really kinda looks that Gilliganesque. It's hardly a fatal flaw. Both W. Bush and Jimmy Carter have had the smae quality and each have managed to win election (to one term each, hopefully). No one ever accused Kerry of being pretty either. Frontrunner Howard Dean never looks (in photographs) like he's looking in the same direction that he's facing--which gives the impression that his thoughts are "elsewhere" even while giving a speech. Edwards, Clark, and Moseley Braun are arguably the most photogenic of our candidates, and yet only one of them has managed to break into the "second tier".

Anyone watching DK for more than a few minutes will understand that he's a serious thinker and a competant public spokesperson. Not everyone can be photogenic, but we all get to choose whether we're competant and honest.

Well said! Very well said! We can't all be tall or wealthy or have film-star looks...but we can be honest, competent, and caring.
