|  tim-hollis | Jan 5, 10:51am | The following is a letter I sent to the editor of The Nation. It is applicable to many progressive news outlets and I hope you'll join me in setting them straight:
The Nation's stance that Kucinich is 'unelectable' is an unfortunate error. Polling at 77% seems not to have corrected this view. Even if Kucinich was a hopeless underdog (which he isn't) The Nation would be expected to endorse the candidate best representing progressive wishes, not the most viable of centrist (sure loser) candidates condoned by the oligarchic media. The Nation has been duped and cowed by the vicious elimination of our only hope. It is a cowardly surrender to the criminal forces it claims to oppose. |

I mean if either of them were actually going to do something, they wouldn't be running. They would have been axed same as Kucinich. |
