What many folks don't realize is that Sen. Dodd played a HUGE part in the mortgage crisis....and benefitted big time.

Barney Frank should be his cell mate.

Pleez....

no cameras.

Go to jail.

Go directly to jail.

Do not pass go......etc.

Term limits for all of congress should be enacted now.

Here is the guy we need in there to knock Dodd out of the box:

State Senator Sam Caligiuri (http://www.senaterepublicans.ct.gov/sen_info/caligiuri.aspx - broken link)

I'm not so much looking at the R or D as much as what his words and deeds have been.

He's considering making a run after Dodd. Check him out and support him.

Dodd must go.

South has power because it's gaining population, nothing to do with longevity. North Carolina can't hold onto a senator for more than 1 term.

I certainly hope not. If he does then the public has absolutely no clue!

The Countrywide scandal is just a drop in the ocean. Dodd's machinations go back decades:
The Provocateur: Chris Dodd's Unique, Brazen, and Dangerous Corruption

How could ANYBODY in their RIGHT mind vote this guy in? He and Barney Frank should be facing criminal charges!

Qunnipiac University just released a poll that stated Chris Dodd's popularity is RISING in Connecticut. RISING! I mean, is this polling system corrupt or what? I would be hugely surprised if he is re-elected.

I read this post and it is really nothing more than someones opinion. It just rehashes the same things others have mentioned and that have been explained by Dodd. It says "endless" corruption but only talks about a couple of things. It is very sweeping in its generalizations and offers no proof of any wrong doing. I am no fan of Chris Dodd and I really dislike most politicans but I also do not believe in trashing someone unless there is proof and this offers nothing. Jay

Christopher Dodd should be in jail, not in the Senate.

In fact, Iowahawk has the best idea of all: iowahawk: One Giant Leap: Come on America, Let's Put a Congress on the Moon
