Dodd is my copilot
In an interview, Chris Dodd questions Hillary's electability, and talks about battling his old friend Joe Lieberman and defying Bush on Syria.
By Walter Shapiro [2007-07-10]

  • I'll be damned

    Every time I hear or read Dodd, I come away impressed...not just on a policy level, but the level way he states his policies and makes the case for himself. I'd say this is one guy who hasn't been ruined by his Senate experience. And I'd seriously take issue with Alan Bennet's take on Dodd's handling of the Leiberman thing. Are we to hold it against Dodd that he honored a 30-year relationsship with Joe to support him in the primary and then honored his relationship with the state's voters to campaign against Joe in the general? Are we looking for petty, back-stabbing, bomb throwing narcissists or are we looking for mature people with some sense of statesmanship?
