Willie Nelson bats for congressman

Tuesday, January 31, 2012



LORAIN, Ohio (AP) — Country music icon Willie Nelson has come to Ohio to sing out in support of an old friend, US Rep Dennis Kucinich.

Nelson performed a sold-out benefit for the congressman on Sunday in Lorain, about 25 miles west of Cleveland. The star previously campaigned for Kucinich during his long-shot bids for president.

Redistricting has thrown Kucinich into a congressional primary battle with another veteran Democrat, Marcy Kaptur.

Her campaign sniffed last week that while Kucinich brings singers to northern Ohio, Kaptur brings jobs.
