Kucinich's Diet ("I'm 60, my wife's 29. You draw your own conclusions")

Kucinich's diet

Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio) offered an explanation for why he chooses a vegan diet today during the LiveStrong presidential candidates forum on cancer.

He explained he has dropped 25 pounds since taking on a no-meat diet. He said his food choices give him tons of energy to use on the campaign trail, and, apparently, in his personal life.

"I'm 60, my wife's 29. You draw your own conclusions," he said, adding as the MSNBC camera panned to wife Elizabeth: "Diet helps."

Moderator Lance Armstrong complained, "This has really deteriorated," but then joined in the fun: "I would just be hungry all the time, I think."

So...is Kucinich robbing the cradle or is his wife robbing the grave?

OK a vegan diet blinds you to gold diggers!

Would that be the definition of a trophy wife?

Like most politicians, Dennis isn’t exactly destitute and some rub off fame for the wife can’t hurt much either.
