DO HILLARY AND OBAMA LOVE GRAVEL AND KUCINICH?

By making Gravel and Kucinich the designated villains of the debate, Obama and Hillary never have to engage and disagree strongly with a more liberal candidate with an actual base of support - somebody like John Edwards. It's risk-free verbal sparring.

Trouble is, with Gravel achieving rock-star status among the netroots, this could backfire.
