WASHINGTON - With the 2010 election year barely under way, two senators and one governor all Democrats ditched plans to run for re-election in the latest signs of trouble for President Barack Obama's party.
Taken together, the decisions by Sens. Chris Dodd of Connecticut and Byron Dorgan of North Dakota as well as Colorado Gov. Bill Ritter caused another bout of heartburn for Democrats as they struggle to defend themselves in a sour political environment for incumbents, particularly the party in charge.

On the surface, Dodd not running sounds like good news but he was beatable. In the Blue state of CT, they’ll now have another Dem running who may not be so easy to beat. Am I wrong here?

Sounds like a political move. Quit before you get trounced. Typical move by cowards. No matter, trash is trash and should go to the nearest landfill. And both of these trash coward Senators, Dodd and Dorgan qualify for such a destination.
