Dennis Kucinich, 58, finds love, plans to wed this summer

Washington - Dennis Kucinich is getting hitched.

The 60-year-old congressman from Cleveland's West Side plans to wed Elizabeth Harper later this summer.

Kucinich spokesman Doug Gordon described Harper as a red-haired British citizen who works at a monetary policy think tank in Chicago.

Gordon refused to divulge more details about Harper, or discuss how the couple met or how long they've dated.

"We are trying to respect her privacy and the congressman's privacy," Gordon said.

During his 2004 presidential campaign, the twice-divorced Kucinich boldly declared his single status and told New Hampshire audiences he was seeking a mate.

Dozens of women vied for a date with him during a contest arranged by a New Hampshire political Web site, but nothing romantic evolved from Kucinich's breakfast date with its winner.

Kucinich can now put the dating rat race behind him.

"They are both very happy, and the congressman is very much looking forward to being married," Gordon said.

"Dennis Kucinich, 58, finds love, plans to wed this summer . . . The 60-year-old congressman from Cleveland's West Side plans to wed Elizabeth Harper later this summer"

So, I wonder if he has told Miss Harper his true age?

Some poor woman is awfully hard up for a man, or whatever Kucinich claims to be.

Maybe he expects us to average them and get 59 - when he's actually 70!

And they whirled and they twirled and they tangoed
Singin’ and jingin’ the jango
Floatin’ like the heavens above
It looks like moonbat love

So Dennis the Red has never had sex, maybe that's why he's so uptight and anti-war. Maybe he won't be anti-Bush once he get a little.

Good for Dennis! I heard he'd been a little depressed after sending his picture to a lonely hearts club a while back. They returned the picture, saying they're not that lonely.

Does what they say about a man's hands and feet apply to the ears as well?

It's happened at least once. He has a daughter, Jackie.

But, thanks for making us all have that lovely mental picture.
