Default So what are Kuccinich chances of winning?

He's the only candidate who has a good track record. Yet so many people discount him as a joke. Why is that?

An example is how he voted against going to war with Iraq.

He's a joke, because like Mitt, he's on the fringe. All he will do is pull votes from who ever the front runner is. In '04 he was 5th in Iowa, 6th out of 7 in N.H.

He has no big money.

He has no big support.

He has no chance.

If you go for the person with the most money then it's going to be the hildabeast. I don't think anybody wants her for 4 or 8 years. I'm not a democrat but if I were I'd be thinking about getting somebody who would could lead and get things done and Kuccinich is the only one with a track record of getting difficult things done.

His chances are slim to none.

Like Deadshot said: fringe candidate, no big money, no support, no chance.

On the GOP side, I like Ron Paul but all the same criticisms apply to him. So I can like him all I want, but he isn't going to win.

Take Izdaari's point to heart, THT.

Hildebeast isn't my first choice either. But she's the frontrunner. I'd love if the KC ROYALS or KC CHIEFS to win everything, but it's not going to happen.

Hillary or Obama, maybe Edwards vs. McCain or Rudy. It's where the money and prestige is. Sorry, but welcome to American politics.

Uh huh. And given those options, I'll take Rudy.

I think the best match up for the Republicans would be Hilliary vs Rudy. Rudy is liberal enough to pull the moderate Democrats and Hilliary is left wing enough for conservatives to vote for Rudy to keep her out of the White House. Althought I would rather see Newt (I know he isn't officially running) I don't think he would have a chance against the Dems for the same reason Hilliary would lose against Rudy
