for the most part i like dodd

but am HORRIBLY DISSAPOINTED in some of his actions of late (i.e. supporting the liebs and NOT supporting feingold's bid to censure the king)./ he's going to have to do a bit better to get me to vote for him in 2008 (IF he runs) cause i'm going to be remembering what he did (and didn't do) in 2006

AP Interview: Dodd says he has "itch" for 2008 presidential bid
By Andrew Miga, Associated Press Writer April 4, 2006
WASHINGTON --U.S. Sen. Christopher Dodd says he is considering running for president in 2008.
"It's an itch," Dodd told The Associated Press during an interview in his Senate office on Monday. "Could grow. Could disappear. It's an itch. It's not a bad word to use."
The 2008 race for the Democratic nomination is expected to be a crowded one, with national figures such as Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., seen as likely candidates.
"There's an itch," Dodd said. "It's a little itch at this point."
Dodd said he realizes that the field is rapidly starting to take shape. Other Democratic presidential hopefuls are already laying the foundation for possible White House bids, traveling to key primary states, lining up campaign staffers and courting top fundraisers.
"If you have any thoughts of doing it, you ought to make up your mind pretty quickly because the window closes," the senator said.
He did not offer any timetable on a decision.........
