Looks like longtime crazyman Dennis Kucinich has lost his primary battle, and won't be in Congress next year.   Although my politics aren't  Dennis's politics, I must say that he was an honest man in what he believed, and was not, like so many others, there for the power alone.  Sorry to see him go.

I like guys like this who say what they think no matter how crazy, and then act on them. He was wrong nearly all the time, but he believed what he advocated in his heart. Fare well, Dennis.

Interesting facts abound about Kucinich.  First, and most impressive, he married a red headed Englishwoman who was 24 years his junior and six inches taller than him.  Gutsy. Flirting with disaster, big time.

Next, he is a vegan.   That's right, no red meat, no white meat, no fishy meat.   No jokes allowed here!!

He will also tell you that he once saw a flying saucer while staying at actress Shirley McLaine's house.  Makes you wonder what sort of whacky tobacky he and Shirley might have been burning that night. But he believes it was real. 

See, the guy is crazy but amazing.
