Little Big Man (for Kucinich comrades)
The totally unpresidential, but strangely
appealing, campaign of Dennis Kucinich.


Valets park the cars in Sherman Oaks as the guests and
their checkbooks slowly arrive. Inside the house of James
Cromwell (Farmer Hoggett in Babe), a B or C list of about
150 celebrities waits. Some are here looking for the Beautiful
Loser, the candidate with a perfect stand on every issue who
will die nobly in the arena of American politics. Some are
shopping for the True Liberal, who can make a run for the
money, or at least score some points in the rating system
called votes. At the moment, Howard Dean is leading in the
polls with up to 24 percent of the Democratic vote. The
man the crowd waits to hear has 1 to 3 percent. His anti-war
speeches and recent support of abortion are also costing him
support in his rust-belt Cleveland congressional district.
