Kucinich’s theme must’ve been ‘Space Oddity’

Hard feelings: The writer of Boston classic “More Than a Feeling” has asked Mike Huckabee to stop using the song in his presidential campaign.

Huckabee has been playing the song at rallies, but he might as well stop. “All I Need Is a Miracle” would be more appropriate at this point, anyway.

Meanwhile, his rival John McCain has been using John Mellencamp’s “Our Country,” but Mellencamp wants him to stop. Apparently he’s just like everyone else — sick of hearing it every time he sees a Chevy ad.

On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton has been playing “You and I” by Celine Dion. Yet reports are that some men stay at her rallies anyway.

And Barack Obama likes to blare U2’s “City of Blinding Lights,” a song Bono has said is about “innocence, naivete.” So Hillary must have control of his play list, too.

If you’ve ever wanted to feel like a ruthless dictator, now’s your chance. Saddam Hussein’s yacht is on the market. The yacht comes complete with practical touches such as gold toilets, bullet-proof glass and a rocket launcher.

It’s all yours for $35 million, but your body double and personal food tester will cost extra.
