Dennis tomorrow. He is really wonderful to see. I don't live in Ohio but I've seen Dennis 4 or 5 times. He's really inspiring.

Dennis needs to come to Western MA! People love him here. I see DK bumper stickers every day and there's a DK flyer up in my college library.

5. Saw Dennis in Yellow Springs... |
|
Talk about a city that's tailor made for Kucinich, Yellow Springs is one of the most liberal, "crunchiest" towns outside California. It's the home of Antioch University -- which was in the news a couple years ago when the students voted Mumia Abu-Jamal give the commencement address on tape. DK might be considered a conservative there. :)
He did great. A crisp sunny day, DK walked over from his last stop, was expecting to find 20 people at an independent bookstore, only to find about 120+ people waiting outside the store, so he just climbed up on a low brick bench and gave a short but fiery speech to the assembled faithful. He took a few questions and did a good job thinking on his feet, and then did a little "grip and grin" as he made his way to the van to go over to the high school. Got to shake his hand!
Followed over to the assembly at the high school and caught the end of his speech and Q&A. He did a good job answering the kids' questions without talking down to them. Then off again, hitting the campaign trail.
With Dean out of the race, I'll probably show my support for DK at the primary on the 2nd. It'll be good if he can have a respectable showing in his home state. I just wish America was ready for his message of peace, prosperity, and universal health care.
