Dodd well-positioned for White House bid

[ckramer]

The White House isn't the only prestigious address on Sen. Christopher Dodd's mind as he nears a decision on whether he'll plunge into a crowded field of Democratic presidential contenders.

He looks presidential...the look...

1. He Looks Presidential ?!?

He looks like a DC politician. About as presidential as Steny Hoyer. I don't think the new 50-state Democratic party is going to go for that in 2008.

2. Good luck to him if decides to make "the decision". n/t

3. I respect Christopher Dodd for his move to restore Habeus Corpus.

I also remember his speech at the 1968 Democratic Convention. If I am not mistaken he told Mayor Daily to stop his storm troopers out on the streets where they were fighting with the demonstrators against the Vietnam war. My biggest concern: how old is he?

5. Wrong Connecticut Senator

That was the late Abraham Ribicoff.

4. Dodd is no profile in courage

He supported IWR and the Patriot Act. He's very much a Washington DC politician, and he's about as charasmatic as a 2"x4" board.
