Another superdelegate, another fundraising list

Other than that, not much to see here folks

Appears Dodd is the appointed one to bury Clinton prior to Pennsylvania.

Somebody needs to start this web site.

;-)

In Barack Obama being a President that respect the constitution and rule of law, first Feingold and now Dodd confirming my trust is definitely a good thing.

'Said Rabbi Eliezer, "If the law is as I hold it to be, let this tree prove it," and the tree uprooted itself a hundred amma, but they said, "Proof cannot be brought from a tree." Rabbi Eliezer persisted, saying, "Let these waters determine it," and the waters began to flow backwards, but his colleagues responded that waters cannot determine the law. Once again Rabbi Eliezer tried, asking the walls of the study house to support him. They began to totter, whereupon the spokesman for the majority, Rabbi Joshua, admonished them, "when rabbis are engaged in legal discussion what right have ye to interfere!" So the walls did not fall in respect for Rabbi Joshua, nor did they return to their upright position, in respect for Rabbi Eliezer-and "they remain thus to this day!" But Rabbi Eliezer would not surrender and cried out: "Let Heaven decide." A voice was heard from Heaven saying: "Why do ye dispute with Rabbi Eliezer; the law is always as he says it to be." Whereupon Rabbi Joshua arose and proclaimed, quoting Scripture, "It is not in Heaven!" '

I swear, if Clinton herself quit tomorrow, said that she had always been Obama's biggest fan, and gave him her strongest endorsement, her supporters would call her a sellout and the haters would still hate the man.  I mean really, you call Obama supporters robots for their supposedly unthinking devotion to the man?  As the illustrious Kirk once said, "People who live in glass houses shouldn't have sex."

Hillary buried herself with the mocking sarcastic speech she gave on Sunday.  Undoubtedly this will come up in tonight's debate and now he has Dodd to add to the list of people like Kennedy, Leahy, Kerry, and Feingold.  But even more so, it is clear now he will hit the goal of 1,000,000 donors by next Tuesday.  That is quite an achievement.  That is 1,000,000 people who understand that change doesn't come easy in this country, that change requires participation on the part of the American people, that it requires getting involved and staying involved.  That is approximately 1 in every 300 people in America who Hillary openly mocked this weekend.  It was not Presidential and it was not smart and she deserves to pay for it.

The Clinton Campaign sent out a press release that "Chris Dodd and his stupid hair no longer matter, because his vote isn't important in the General Election, and wouldn't vote Democratic anyways."

As always, the Clinton campaign, headed by Mr. Penn, is on point.

 Its funny that Mr. Penn's company is also running McCain's campaign. Mr. Penn 'wins' if either Clinton or McCain win, so he's using both of their campaigns to attack Obama. Not in Clinton's best interest's for saving face, but in Mr. Penn's strategic and tactical advantage for the McCain gruppen.

Hillary Clinton has been abandoned by a bunch of ungrateful Democrats and it is now up to the voters to show her the support she deserves.

Where is the decency?  The Clintons have been maligned and trampled undeservedly.

Disgusting.

Excellent news.  Dodd should help in Ohio very much.

Another white male threatened by a woman..

It is now confirmed that Dodd has been brought under Obamaa's Svegali-like powers.

Another cultist!

Obama must be stopped!

Face it.  It's over.  Obama is our nominee and we need to support him.  Hillary tried, but it wasn't her year.

I feel MyDD coming back

Chris Dodd would be an excellent VP.  This will get him on the list.

Chris Dodd for Majority Leader. He has shown more guts and principle then any Senator with the possible exception of Russ Feingold.

interesting that he doesn't wait til after march 4th.

Cash?  Really?  Please, share with us the source of this allegation.

Can't wait for Silly Season to be over.

Chris who?

So what?

The link to the Obama response is inaccurate, but here's the response:

It has been my pleasure to serve alongside Chris Dodd in the United States Senate. It was a privilege to share the stage with him during his principled run for the presidency. And it is an honor to stand here with him today, and to accept his endorsement of my candidacy for President of the United States of America.  

I say that because Chris Dodd loves his country - and believes in the ideal of public service - as much as anyone I know. From his years as a young Peace Corps worker in the 1960s to this very day, Senator Dodd has devoted his life to building a stronger, fairer, healthier America; and a more just and secure world.  

Whether it was his work to protect voting rights; his long, determined battle for the Family and Medical Leave Act; his leadership on U.S. relations with Latin America; or his defense of our Constitution - Chris Dodd has been at the forefront of some of the most important issues of our time. He has worked hard to preserve the right of workers to organize despite an onslaught from a hostile administration. He has been an advocate for our children, and no one has fought harder to improve our schools. He has been a voice for unity amid the often bitter debate over immigration reform. And I have seen firsthand on the Foreign Relations Committee his commitment to restoring our standing in the world.  

But as passionate as Chris Dodd is about the causes he champions, he also has that rare ability to disagree without being disagreeable. He is respected on both sides of the aisle for his authenticity, reason, and civility. And that is how, time and again, he's been able to bring Democrats and Republicans together to make a real difference in the lives of the American people.  

He conducted his campaign for President with that same character. He resisted the cheap and easy shots, and elevated the debate with important ideas about how to address the great challenges we face. He and I share a deep commitment to take our country in a new direction.  

We know it's time to end the war in Iraq. This war has not made us safer, it has overstretched our military, it has cost us precious American lives, and it is costing us billions and billions of dollars that could be better spent finishing the fight in Afghanistan and bringing relief to the middle class here at home.  

We know it's time for an energy policy that ends our addiction to oil. We can't keep buying oil from dictators while our planet is in peril and Americans are paying more at the pump. It's time to embrace a clean energy policy that enhances our national security, while creating green jobs right here in states like Ohio.

We know it's time to reclaim the American Dream for the middle class. Instead of giving tax breaks to companies that ship our jobs overseas, it's time to put a tax cut in the pockets of working people and seniors. Instead of giving hundreds of millions to well-connected contractors in Iraq, it's time to put America back together again by investing in our infrastructure - an issue that Chris Dodd has shown real leadership on in the Senate. And instead of standing by while there's a squeeze on the middle class, it's time to expand the Family and Medical Leave Act so no American has to choose between a job and their family.  

We know it's time to time to restore our Constitution and the rule of law. This is an issue that was at the heart of Senator Dodd's candidacy, and I share his passion for restoring the balance between the security we demand and the civil liberties that we cherish.  

The American people must be able to trust that their president values principle over politics, and justice over unchecked power. I've been proud to stand with Senator Dodd in his fight against retroactive immunity for the telecommunications industry. Secrecy and special interests must not trump accountability. We must show our citizens - and set an example to the world - that laws cannot be ignored when it is inconvenient. Because in America - no one is above the law.  

It's time to reject torture without equivocation. It's time to close Guantanamo and to restore habeas corpus. It's time to give our intelligence and law enforcement agencies the tools they need to track down and take out terrorists, while ensuring that their actions are subject to vigorous oversight that protects our freedom. So let me be perfectly clear: I have taught the Constitution, I understand the Constitution, and I will obey the Constitution when I am President of the United States.  

Finally, it's time to once again inspire this nation to rally behind a common purpose - a higher purpose. Throughout his campaign, Senator Dodd spoke eloquently about the need to turn the page to a new era of public service. That is the legacy of his own family - the legacy of a father who stood up to the Nazis at Nuremberg, and a young man who enlisted in the Peace Corps after he heard President Kennedy's call to service on a cold Inauguration Day.  

I am running for president because I believe deeply in the promise of America - without that promise, I would not be here today, because my story is not possible anywhere else on earth. I believe that each of us has an obligation to do our part to extend that promise - not just for ourselves, but for our country. That's why I share Senator Dodd's commitment to dramatically expand public service programs like AmeriCorps. That's why I will give all Americans more opportunities to serve their communities and their country. And that's why I will work to put an end to the division and distraction in our politics, so that we can finally come together to meet the great challenges we face.  

I know that it will not be easy to deliver the change that we seek, but I know that the road will be easier with the support of Senator Dodd and the millions of voices who have joined our call for change. With his help, I know that we can unite our Democratic Party, and build a coalition that brings together Democrats and Independents and Republicans behind a mandate for change. Together, we can keep America's promise in the 21st century.  

Wow... big time news.  Need I remind you all that Dodd endorsed Ned Lamont over Lieberman. Yawn...

They're only Obamacans if they vote in the General.

What they outta be looking at is how many McCain Democrats are in the offing.

Clinton's Razor

"The explanation of any phenomenon should make as many assumptions as possible that back up some sort of conspiracy against Hillary."

For example:

Some frustrated Clinton staffer sent a long-blog-circulated pic that could exacerbate Obama's "Muslim" problem to Drudge, since Drudge was a reliable outlet in the past.
FALSE

Obama, working with Tom DeLay, convinced Drudge to claim the photo was from Obama's camp, thus creating a backlash that could draw the focus off Hillary, thus keeping her well-thought-out plan of mocking Obama and his supporters out of the press, since it would totally have resonated, had the media paid more attention.
TRUE

Chris Dodd is supporting Obama because he thinks Obama would be a good President
FALSE

Chris Dodd, paid off from a secret Bahaman bank account, agreed to support Obama over Hillary (who secretly donated a kidney to him last year, but didn't want any publicity because that's not what she's about) because deep down, he likes Republican rule since it gives him an opportunity to make futile attempts to fight for what he believes in. Chris Dodd's greatest fear is of success.
TRUE

It's easy and fun!

Perhaps because you are seeing things that aren't really there. Stop hallucinating.

I see it, too.  That is becoming my worst nightmare. How can so many Americans be so dumb and not see what is going on?  Read the local papers and you will read so many comments by people who voted democrat for a day. 4 more years of Republiscum!

he is afraid he might get the lieberman treatment

Source? If that is true, Obama could put a few red states into play this fall.

I thought McCain and Hagel were friends (despite their differences on the war).

I think we're going to be hearing a lot about "McCain Democrats" if Obama gets the nomination.

Please enforce your policy, denno has no value here. I would for others to get warnings.

There is no excuse for some of this writing. No excuse for it to be here anyway they can spew hare and lies on some thug site if they like.

Its time to organize, don't mourn.

Go Dems!

it's okay for Republicans to cross over and vote for Obama in the primary as a torpedo to a responsible nominee but not okay for Democrats to insist that the party offer a responsible choice as it's nominee?

I'm a citizen first, if the party presents an irresponsible choice then a citizen may need to abandon party to find the responsible candidate.

Every Democrat when face with the party abandoning reason and responsiblity to the country must stand up and say Don't Do It!

If the party does it, it will force many a Democrat away from voting for the Democratic Nominee in the General.

That is trolling, it's called citizenship.

Yep, he needs the money that Obama supporters may or may not provide. Hope all those Obama Republicans will help him out. Lets get real. Even Reagan Democrats left us with huge debt after Reagan's 2 terms. More debt. More poverty. Gaming the race - how naive the democrats are. No wonder we lose so much. Rove is still working hard. From the electorate that gave us 2 terms of Bush also. Why? Because Gore was soooo stiff and boring. Lets go with the uniter, nit divider.

on many levels, FISA, this.

Yet another slimy pol.

perhaps it's not the rest of the world -- maybe it's you?
