Getting Dodd out of the Senate, in and of itself, would be the shining triumph of 2010:
Is Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) really in trouble?
At first glance, it’s hard to believe. Since his first election to the House in 1974, he’s won every campaign by double digits. He crushed his last two Senate opponents by landslide 2-to-1 ratios.
But reports about an alleged special mortgage deal from Countrywide Financial and criticism of his tenure as chairman of the Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee appear to have dented his popularity, as reflected in a new Quinnipiac poll that suggests the five-term Democrat is highly vulnerable heading into his reelection next year.
A 51 percent majority of Connecticut voters said they “definitely” or “probably” won’t be voting for him, with only 42 percent saying they’d likely support him.
Connecticut, New York, Illinois, Delaware – four enormously safe Democrat seats which now have to be defended in 2010, the first mid-term of a Democrat Presidency. Yeah, Dodd is in trouble – though, of course, the GOP will have to come up with a good candidate. Can’t beat even a creep like Dodd without someone who appeals to the people of Connecticut.
There is a Dump Chris Dodd website, for anyone interested in getting him out of the Senate.
