I expect Sen Dodd to surge. He is by far the best candidate. I have wanted him to run for President quite some time. Read his speech from last Nov delivered at Howard Univ. His vision is enormous.

Dodd has no chance! Some may not want to hear but it's just better to accept it:

Dodd has no chance!

And while I’m no fan of Senator Kerry for personality reasons, it’s unfair to say he was “claiming to be a decorated vet.” He really is one.

Dodd has NO chance. He is counting on a "Hail Mary" throw where the top 3 candidates somehow fallout of the race and he is left standing to catch the nomination. Ain't going to happen.

Now Dodd trails some major heavyweights. Sorry but I dont see Dodd climbing out of this whole. The dems are very happy with the current field.

This is not the 2004 election, and a great number of variables are different, including the fact that far more people are paying attention to the primaries this time around and attaching to specific candidates as if it were the general election. It will be Hillary or Obama, because they represent something completely different purely from the standpoint of celebrity. I highly doubt that another white male is going to be the nominee for the Democrats. Dodd isn't going to win.
