Dodd needs to be at the bottom of a tall cliff. With overhangs if possible.
Dodd will be spreading earmarks and free money around like cake frosting in the coming months.

Uphill battle, battling prostate cancer, long shot..
Yup, time to send the other half of the dodd kennedy sandwich packing... let him grow old with the grandkids.
I heard he was going to run as a Republican.
I know a CT GOP insider. He is not comfortable with GOP prospects against Dodd. The main reason is that Dodd is very well funded and will bombard Connecticut with advertising. The National DNC party will not let Dodd lose either, so he will have the full backing of the party machine.
My thought is that the main GOP challenger, Rob Simmons, is not that exciting. While not quite an Snowe/Collins-level RINO, he is nevertheless a RINO.
Peter Schiff is libertarian-leaning and is a close second to Simmons in the polls. There is good reason to get excited about Schiff’s fiscal conservatism. He is also a wealthy man and intends to spend up to $25M of his own money to beat Dodd.
Fortunately, Connecticut is a show-ID to vote state, so ACORN-type tactics will be less effective than elsewhere.
Hey guys I’m new around here. What’s a “ping”?
Don’t count him out. He has a lot of money and a lot of rich backers. Even now they are feverishly pawing through newspapers and court records, interrogating neighbors, bribing homeless people to come up with something to roast his opponent on.
The election is still over a year away but Linda McMahon is already spending huge cash...HUGE
reid and dodd.....may the Lord be with America.
