You Don't Say

Dennis Kucinich, superannuated boy mayor of Cleveland, has condemned fellow Democratic candidates for ducking scheduled debates in New Hampshire and Nevada. (He argues--convincingly, I think--that a few of their votes that have helped our country would not play well with the base. I'm not sure, though, this explains the cancelations.)

Kucinich's complaint would be a lot less hypocritical if he didn't want to bring back the Fairness Doctrine, a bald-faced move to stifle political discussion in this country. To be fair, Kucinich does seem to believe the only honest debate takes place within a small portion of the political spectrum, so why worry about the rest?
