"Pelosi wants no part of it because then she and Kerry and a lot of other Democrats would be exposed for their part in the war lead up."
--You have an interesting imagination but none of what you say mitigates the fact that when Democrats and Republicans agreed to allow Bush to disarm Iraq, they didn't agree to anything like what this horrific three-hour tour has morphed into over the course of 5 years. THAT is the issue you cons fail to get through your thick skulls. No one, neither Democrat nor Republican authorized Bush to invade Iraq, AND destroy the country in a way that it would ultimately be necessary to stay there indefinitely and spend trillions of dollars giving the Middle East a surprise makeover. You cons love regurgitating CRAP about what "everyone knew" and what "everyone thought." No sane person would have given Bush the green light to do any of that and cons know this. No way, Jose. ;-(

This guy is a gutsy little booger! He doesn't appear to follow any lock-step party doctrine and doesn't seem to be a "yes man." He's a Democrat for sure, but one who questions all policy and decisions. A renegade? No. A clear thinker? Seems to be. Hears the music of the Democrats, but marches to his own drum.
I hope there's a spot for him in the next administration.
Recall, if you will, that Lincoln actively sought out his opponents and those with divergent viewpoints and INCLUDED them in his administration. When his administration came to a consensus, it was a STRONG consensus tempered in the crucible of opposition and debate.
Future administrations would be wise to emulate him.

Were I the President, I'd find room for him at the very next Supreme Court Justice vacancy.
His drive, his couragenousness, and his desire to see justice done despite the odds, are exactly the qualities needed in a court dominated by justices who want only to avoid rocking the business-political status quo.
And while Secretary of State wouldn't be a stretch for Kucinich's talent, I'm guessing that spot's already been offered to someone else.

Lest your analogy go to far it should be noted that Lincoln presided over the bloodiest conflict in American history, with over 1,000,000 Americans dead and half of America ravished, with major cities razed and farms and infrastructure and economy ruined.
