The author actually donates money—to a candidate, yet!
Over the years, I've given money to various organizations and causes. I've never contributed to a politician. I've always thought the politicians I like are hopeless candidates. Not a chance. I can't remember the last time a national candidate I liked won an election—maybe back when I was younger and dumber, JFK. It's been downhill ever since.
And, no, I wouldn't support Kennedy again.
But, in a fit of hope, yesterday I sent some money off to John Edwards' campaign. He's hopeless, but not as hopeless as Kucinich. But it's Kucinich I really hope wins. OK. He gets ten bucks, too. Why not? What the fuck, to quote Hunter Thompson.
