Hopefully the real falling out will be between chris and his constituents, who may have thought he was something besides the white collar criminal he has turned out to be.
Dodd is toast. Leno is a lagging indicator. He’s helping his party dump Dodd before the general election.
I’m just an average American Boy
From an average American town
I believe in God and Senator Dodd
And keepin’ ol’ Castro Down.
Please don't count on it. They obviously have a deficit of education since they elected him in the first place.

[Thomas Dodd] In 1967 he was censured by the Senate for using campaign funds for personal purposes. Beyond the Senate Ethics Committee's formal disciplinary action, other sources (such as investigative journalist Drew Pearson and Jack Anderson's Congress in Crisis) suggest Dodd's corruption was far broader in scope.
In 1970, after suffering a heart attack, he chose not to run for re-election for the Senate, and the Democrats nominated Joseph Duffey to replace him. However, Dodd entered the race after the primary as an Independent. Taking just under a quarter of the vote, both he and Duffey lost to Lowell Weicker.
