Most voters in Washington state say Rep. Dennis Kucinich isn't welcome there if the Republican-controlled House decides to abolish his Ohio district.

A recent survey (PDF) by the Democratic Public Policy Polling firm found that only 12 percent of voters in Washington wanted Kucinich to run, compared with 39 percent who said he should not.

Among Democrats, 35 percent say he should not run, while 22 percent said he should. Thirty-eight percent of Republicans and 46 percent of independents are also opposed.

On the bright side, 33 percent of Democrats have a favorable opinion of the congressman, while only 19 percent had a unfavorable opinion. Overall, 19 percent of voters viewed Kucinich favorably.

You'll need a grain of salt roughly the size of Mt. Rainier to take this seriously. I don't know if Kucinich is seriously considering a Washington state run, but if he is, I can't imagine why Washington state Democrats wouldn't want a proven fund-raiser and winner like Kucinich to campaign in their state. Unless, of course . . .

seems like the typical silly "if I don't like what a poll says, it's crap". Dumb.

area. Live there ten years Dennis and then try it. I wouldn't want him to come in either and I love him.

Right?

:rofl:

the rest is just gibberish.

:rofl:

OMC used it to cover up his total lack of any real knowledge on any given topic. It's usually a subconcious thing that they/we don't even notice doing to make us look so smart that the other person is worth a mere laugh and nothing more. I often see it as a sign of insecurity in one's position, which it often is.

To be fair, I should add that sometimes something really is just funny. ;)

Which of his stances on issues do you most vehemently disagree with?

just ineffective. One only has to look, after eight terms, at his legislative successes to see that. Sorry.

say.

Apparently the voters in his district believe that he is representing them very adequately for some strange reason.

He always seems to win his Congressional elections by extremely large margins.

I wonder why, since he is so ineffective, that the republicans are so desperate to get him out of Congress that they gerrymandered his district to force him out.

An interesting phenomenon.

they seem content that he talks a good game. I don't have to vote for him in OH or WA, so let the voters decide. If red meat speeches are all his supporters need, then Dennis is the man for the job. :shrug:

if Kucinich runs in my current district, or if I'm part of the new district that is going to be created and he runs there...I'm definitely voting for him.

It's like Hillary running in New York or something!

No one would ever vote for him because he's short.

Dumb poll.

Bring him out west!

Fighting for the working class is quickly becoming a mark of treason in both parties.
