Kucinich throws weight behind Kerry

In case you missed it:

With the Democratic National Convention set to begin next week, U.S. Rep. Dennis Kucinich announced his support Thursday for Sen. John Kerry as the party's presidential candidate, representatives for both Democrats said.

So now it's all Kerry. Had Kucinich had more of a following, this would be great timing for his support statement. Instead, it merits this:

"This is a very happy, a very pleasant moment for me," said Kerry, who also spoke at the news conference.

Indeed.
