Kucinich won't run in Washington
Chris Lowe
The Hill reports that Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio), who lost a primary race to Rep. Marcy Kaptur after redistricting combined their previously separate districts, has decided against running for a seat in Washington state (or anywhere else). This was a matter of discussion on BlueOregon last year, when the speculation briefly involved Oregon's first district too, after David Wu resigned.
H/t to Steve Weiss.

Good riddance. Kucinich was a drama queen of the first dimension and an embarrassment to the Dem. Party.

My view on Dennis Kucinich is the polar opposite: he represents the best of the Democratic Party. His politics are progressive. He speaks for sanity, justice, peace, and caring; whether or not those qualities are popular with the public, media, or political establishment.

I'm sad to lose Kucinich from the House.
