I hope Marcy Kaptur wins the primary between she and Kucinich in new 9th CD of Ohio [View all]

I hope Kaptur wins (though I have no say). Who do you hope wins this primary?

Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D-OH) and Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OIH) both filed petitions to face each other in a 2012 Democratic primary race for Ohio's newly-configured 9th congressional district, the Toledo Blade reports.

The Hill: "After publicly shopping for a district in Washington state and mulling a challenge to Rep. Marcia Fudge (D-Ohio), Kucinich decided enough of his base was intact to mount a primary challenge against Kaptur, who is the longest-serving female in the House. The new district contains more of Kaptur's territory."
