Kucinich NOT invited to Dem party's Jefferson-Jackson dinner; winnowing the field? WTF??

By Craig Crawford, CQ Staff
Silly season is over. Presidential candidates with no viable chance of winning the White House are finally getting shunned.
Democrats are leading the way when it comes to not waiting for the voters to winnow the field. Last week, their party’s number one 2008 gadfly, former Alaska Sen. Mike Gravel , was excluded from a debate. This weekend it appears that Iowa Democrats will be adding Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio to the unwelcome list, making a point of not inviting him or Gravel to the party’s Jefferson-Jackson dinner in Des Moines that the six other Democratic contenders are expected to attend.
