Kucinich was one of the most ethical members of Congress.. Look at Kucinich's pac money contributions and compare them to Kapturs.. It is Kaptur who should be put under suspicion as being the bum.. Money talks and image makers rule the airwaves. Unfortunately some even here at the DU fall under their prey.. As for me.. Kucinich was one of the few members of the party to draw me to the party.. the loss of figures such as Kucinich is only cause to drop out of the money game that controls our congress.
