Still waiting to be called on.
"I'm here," Kucinich says, "to provide the people of this country with a real choice in this election. Some of the differences that are here are stylistic. I'm offering substantive change in this country."

King then all but makes the blah-blah-blah motion with his hand: "But logically, it appears you're up against it. Why stay in?"

Kucinich: "Because I'm the voice for getting out of Iraq, for universal single-payer health care, for getting out of NAFTA and the WTO" -- some woo-hoos here from a swath of the 400 or so people in Bovard Auditorium -- " for having our children go to college tuition-free, for saving Social Security from privitiz -- "

"But," King says, interrupting, "you can have that voice as a congressman . . . "

"In this race, though," Kucinich says, without a trace of annoyance and none of the strident frustration of the left, "there are real differences of opinion, Larry. And this is what this debate is about today."
