Dodd was the name of that guy in Memento that that other guy punched.

"What's your name?"
-"Dodd."
"Who did this to you?"
-"You did."
"WTF?!"

It's also a camera store in Cleveland.

That's all I know.

Is "laughable" better or worse than "huckabee?"

How this description differs from any other candidate's ability to "save the world" I have not a clue.

/what is truly laughable is the insanity that causes people to vote for criminals again, and again, and again... yet never notice that that is exactly what causes the problems.

Christopher Dodd was the guy banging his partner Marcia Cross while they were prosecutors at the OJ trial.

He's been a senator longer than any of the other congressional candidates, hasn't been caught plagiarizing speeches, frankly admitted his vote for the war was a mistake based on fake intelligence, and speaks without cue cards. He doesn't pretend to be a Republican and isn't ashamed to belong to the party which lost ZERO seats across two houses and all the gubernatorial seats up for grabs in November.

Biden is a corporate whore, Obama is still figuring out shaving, Hillary makes her husband look like a saint, Nutsack is unheard-of... who does that leave me?

The General and the Ambulance Chaser.

/Clark hasn't announced yet, but he seems relatively qualified.

Nearly synonymous. However one of them is completely free of fat, and the other is free of good ideas.

Well, he'd win here in Connecticut.

That's it though.

Did they take a poll of 339 people and call it a statistic? Did they then take this "statistic" and use it to say someone doesn't have a percentage of the Democratic vote? I don't think that 339 people is even a percent of register Democratic voters. Get this, people, we live in a country with about 300,000,000,000 + people.

/100% of people polled think you're a retard.

I lived in Connecticut for two years and barely heard of this guy.

Yeah, he's not too well known outside of CT.

fun fact: his father was Chief US prosecutor in the Nuremburg Trials.

And even if Dodd WAS popular, he won't win Florida for the reason he is the most outspoken senator for relieving the embargo on Cuba.

Right...added a few extra zeroes...

Remember, kids, when railing about something being stupid...don't make a type.

/yes, did that last one one purpose.

Wrong. Nevada and Idaho both elected Republican Governors. (Jim Gibbons and Butch Otter, resprectively)

Oh, and Chris Dodds is a nutjob. He pretty much wants to cut funding to troops in Iraq along with Russ Feingold. No way in hell he takes that stance and stays "electable" in a general election throughout the nation.

Bill Richardson, dammit! He'd be a good candidate if we could get him past the primaries.

Which is dependent upon people actually remembering he's running.

Which is difficult in the midst of Obamania...

/aw, crap

"And we did leave out Senator Chris Dodd, Connecticut. [Pause]. Ok!"

Jon Stewart was so hilarious when he said that.
