However, polls show that Americans want Bush impeached far more than they ever supported the impeachment of Bill Clinton in 1998.

In 1998, when the media was in a feeding frenzy over Clinton's impeachment, polls consistently showed that Americans opposed impeachment.

I liked Kucinich, too, but I figured he couldn't get the nod because he didn't look the role. Except for his Department of Peace, I really liked his positions. Corporate America didn't like him, which is a really big plus in my book.
