Presidential Geek Survey Diary – Day 51

Dennis Kucinich continues his struggle for attention from the mainstream media and continues to get beaten down like a puppy begging for treats.

In the recent Democratic debate on ABC, Kucinuch stood behind his podium for almost half an hour before George Stephanopoulos acknowledged his existence.

Then ABC cropped Kucinich out of the group photo posted on their main page for the debate. The political blog Swampland asked ABC News about the cropping, and was told that no cropping had taken place.

Really? Let’s take a look at that. The ABC News photo is on the left. An uncropped version from Yahoo! News is on the right.

The Democratic Candidates

Perhaps Yahoo! News Photoshopped Kucinich into the picture? I doubt it.

Dennis, you‘re really having a hard time getting noticed. Pink Raygun has been trying to notice you for 51 days. We’re falling all over ourselves trying to get you to respond to the Geek Survey.

We may not be as big as ABC News, but we’re not going to crop you out of a picture.

By the way, it’s easy to blend in with all those bland, dark suits. At your next debate, might I suggest wearing an eye-grabbing Pink Raygun t-shirt? Why should Hillary be the only candidate the gets to feel pretty and sassy?
