Kucinich drops presidential bid - OPENERS - Ohio Politics Blog by The Plain Dealer
Cleveland Congressman Dennis Kucinich is dropping out of the Democratic race for president.
“I want to continue to serve in Congress,” he said.
That’s it in a nutshell. He’s got a couple of strong challengers for his seat. And while traipsing around the country on other peoples’ money and getting lots of free publicity for his doomed-from-the-beginning prexy campaign was fun, the possibility that the folks back home might yank his snout from the trough means its time to get back to the real world of fleecing the taxpayers and bribing the voters.
