Is this the best Nasty DiNardo can come up with ??? The only reason they are defending DODD is they know he is on the ropes and could very well lose in November 2010. I think Simmons or McMahon will make a better US Senator than the a**kisser of the Banks, Credit card Companys that is down there now.

I heard a story about a "waitress sandwich" with Dodd and Kennedy as the bread, so we can all safely assume what was the meat in the middle.....
So I'd rather "violence, vulgarity, and steroids" than a should be sex offender in office!

Come on people....Leave it to Linda McMahon and Dodd to be the only ones running for senate....I can guarantee that Linda will win in a landslide. I cannot wait for 2010 elections....Linda all the way..

If Linda is our savior, than we might as well wait for Armageddon.

I won't vote for Chris Dodd and I sure as heck won't vote for that hack Linda... Guess I just wont vote if it comes down to that.

What a choice, Linda the figure-head CEO of a company she bankrupted, which promotes womanizing and anti-gay, anti-arab sentiments and Chris Dodd, who is obviously serving special and his own interests.

I don't like either, but I can see why Republicans like Linda...

there were 100 or more dump dodders outside his appearance in Litchfield recently & it's only Nov 2009. It's gonna heat up more as the election draws closer. I wouldn't vote for Dodd for dog catcher. check out the above website. I'll vote for Linda.


"Dump Dodd"

A great big pig with lipstick would be better than Dodd. Who cares what the Democraps think. Vote for anybody but Dodd, Obama Lama Ding Dong's head puppet.

I agree...Who cares what the democratic party says? Dodd is corrupt, period. Anybody is better than him, period.
It's time we get rid of the long term corruption that resides in Washington, Dodd, Rangle, and others like them. It doesen't matter which party they are in, corruption is corruption and needs to be rooted out!!!

Hey Len.... I heard the Democrats tried to keep you guys away by trying to discourage you from going to Lacupola. I am sure the DSCC Leadership were afraid of you guys. Keep up the Good Work!!!

“leaving a backbench defeated House member with zero accomplishments to his political name.” Sounds like a certain president so loved by the dems.

Dodd, Reid, Pelosi, Durbon, Franks, Rangel, Hoyer, Murtha, Dingell to name a few......

Vote these liberal -progressive - facist - Mother F ucker scumbags out in 2010 and 2012 !

anonymous -- What about Republicans leadership attempting to keep "Log Cabin Republicans" out of the national convention. What about the "Protest Zones" miles away form the former president's speaking venues?

You are playing the game of the pot calling the kettle black.

Visitor2 - By definition liberals are not "fascist". Furthermore, you're a moron you backwards foul-mouthed fool.

Todd, do you know what a fascist is? Have you ever read a book? You should try reading "Liberal Fascism" by Jonah Goldberg. If you think a "liberal" politician cannot be fascist you are seriously misinformed.

Todd - people like you ABUSE the First Amendment. Our country's founders wanted to insure that no facts, ideas and conclusions based on facts and beliefs could be suppressed and people could freely express such. But people like you both on the looney left and rigid right choose to instead use such freedoms to degrade people. Our founders did not limit free speech hoping that people could maintain a level of respect knowing that any prohibitions in the Constitution would grow like a cancer.
YOU and people like you are a disappintment to our country's founders.

Dodd is a two-faced, run-of-the-mill lying Democrat. He harps about his reform bill for the credit card companies but neglects to mention the 8 month loophole he left in to allow the companies to raise rates and institute other fee structures in advance...

Simmons will be the Republican Senate candidate and he'll beat Dodd quite handily I suspect.

The same Jonah Goldberg that stated, 'I suppose in John Kerry's world good diplomacy lets the boys in the bar finish raping the girl for fear of causing a fuss. Okay, that was unfair.'

Just the man I want to trust!

Chris Murphy pays about $6000 a year for his health care. HE makes $175,000 a year. So does Dodd.

Under the bill Murphy voted for a family of making $175,000 will have to pay about $35,000 a year for their health care.

Murphy will still pay about $6,000 for his. So will Dodd.

Murphy is screwing you over big time.

This health care bill will kill off the remaining insurance industry in this state along with its jobs. But Murphy does not represent Connecticut.

He represents Nancy Pelosi.

Murphy and Dodd are poison to Connecticut.

You must understand. The Democratic health care bills mean you will get much less in care and it will cost you much more. You WILL wait for care in line behind illegal aliens.

Is that the same John Kerry who stated, "“I actually did vote for the $87 billion before I voted against it” ?? Hmmm, now there's an honest and trustworthy politician....

Jane B. I agree with you wholeheartedly. Is it not possible to think both are sleaze?

a backbench defeated House member with zero accomplishments to his political name, a professional wrestling executive most notable for her dissemination of violence, vulgarity, and steroids, and a Ron Paul acolyte.” - ANY of these people are BETTER qualified and most likely have higher integrity than that low-life leftwing elitist dood. His time is past and he needs to be replaced.

Lew, I agree with you that any of those choices would be better than Dodd, who apparently lives in his own little world and cares nothing about actually representing the people's wishes. Furthermore, I find it disingenuous for liberals to be belittling someone with "zero accomplishments to his name," when that description most accurately fits their beloved Obama, the least competent person ever to occupy the White House. I guess when someone with "zero accomplishments" is a far left liberal, he gets a Nobel prize. If he is a moderate or conservative, he gets derided. The hypocrisy is amazing.

Able, I do not think Jonah Goldberg is sleaze. (I do think that John Kerry is.) I only brought up his name because he has written some good articles and books and has made some very valid points about what fascism really is. Most of the people throwing around the word "fascism" have no idea what it means, are unable to place it in its historical context, and wouldn't know it if it was staring them in the face. They do not understand that it is not a "right wing" institution. Nor do they understand that many of the present administration's policies are bringing us closer to fascism than most other administrations (with possibly a couple notable exceptions).

'Furthermore, I find it disingenuous for liberals to be belittling someone with "zero accomplishments to his name," when that description most accurately fits their beloved Obama, the least competent person ever to occupy the White House.'

While both you and I agree that Obama is not the President we wished to see, to believe he lacks experience is laughable and not supported by any data.

'If he is a moderate or conservative, he gets derided. The hypocrisy is amazing.'

He is a moderate. The belief that he is on the, 'far left' or is a 'progressive' is again not supported by evidence, specifically when one analyzes his agenda and what has become accomplished. He campaigned on Center-Left positions, and that is why he got large swathes of progressives, and moderate Republicans. Please show elements of his agenda/proposals that are linked to 'far left' concepts, those within the Anarchist, Socialist, Left Libertarian, Green factions. Now, please do not analyze actions undertaken while campaigning, for those are null and void for obvious reasons.

'I only brought up his name because he has written some good articles and books and has made some very valid points about what fascism really is.'

Having read his book, it is wildly inaccurate, slanderous and thinly referenced. For many of his claims are based on the idea of statism, nationalism or jingoism which exist within both left and right ideologies. He also attempts to, with varying degrees, tie National Socialism in with ACTUAL Socialism, which are not the same.

'Most of the people throwing around the word "fascism" have no idea what it means, are unable to place it in its historical context, and wouldn't know it if it was staring them in the face.'

I agree. He also does the same in his books. Now, this is not to say fascism cannot exist within the left, for it did in Soviet Russia, but while labeled Communist, they were a Stalinist nation and that is rooted in some very fundamental conservative trademarks. It happens that his package was wrapped neatly with a quasi anti-Capitalist bow.

Now, please if you will explain to me which decisions by the present administration have brought us closer to fascism, and couple that with what elements of the previous administration has as well.

Able, with respect to Obama being a moderate, we are just going to have to agree to disagree because in my opinion he is far left. The "most liberal senator of 2007," Mr. "I'd like to spread the wealth around," "I happen to be a proponent of the single payer system" has not changed his tune. As for policies that lean toward fascism, how about government takeover of industry; squashing private rights of contract (in favor of gifts to unions that make huge political contributions to Obama); attempting to take over health care thus increasing centralized government control over every aspect of citizens' lives; attempting to stifle dissent by asking citizens to spy on each other and report "fishy" claims to the government; attempting to stifle conflicting opinions through the fairness doctrine and internet regulation. And before you respond by saying that the prior administration did some of these things, agreed that to some extent, they did. I'm certainly not saying that Obama is singularly responsible for these things, but in my opinion, he's taking the country in a dangerous direction, and quickly. As for the experience, I do not think that the first term senator/ former "community organizer"/ never had a real job in his life/ couldn't even make a decision in the state senate so he had to vote "present" 129 times Obama, had any substantial relevant experience before he ran for president and I have not seen anything to convince me otherwise. As for the Jonah Goldberg stuff, we can just agree to disagree b/c I just have a different take on his work. I respect your right to have a different opinion on this stuff; just trying to make my points clear.

'As for the Jonah Goldberg stuff, we can just agree to disagree b/c I just have a different take on his work. I respect your right to have a different opinion on this stuff; just trying to make my points clear.'

That is all I ask for from anyone, so thank you.

'Able, with respect to Obama being a moderate, we are just going to have to agree to disagree because in my opinion he is far left.'

You can have an opinion, but if it is not rooted in actual fact, then it shows a lack of understanding for the political spectrum, its many facets and diversity amongst its ideologies.

'The "most liberal senator of 2007," Mr. "I'd like to spread the wealth around," "I happen to be a proponent of the single payer system" has not changed his tune.'

If he is the 'most liberal Senator of 2007,' than what would you call Bernard Sanders of Vermont? Who mind you, is a Democratic Socialist? Now, as I stated earlier, you're making references to campaign talks, and not legislation. For him to say he advocates single-payer healthcare, and then not advocate it while in office shows that he is not a proponent of it. Lieberman stated he wished for universal coverage as well, yet they all do and say many things to get elected.

Now, if he were truly, 'spreading the wealth around', we wouldn't have a staggering income gap, rampant poverty, homelessness, etc. He is a Capitalist, and do not let it fool you, the last I looked the banks were bailed out, not the people.

'As for policies that lean toward fascism, how about government takeover of industry.'

This does not explain how it is fascist. A government takeover of an industry also requires the peoples to control the means of production, and in this case they do not.

'squashing private rights of contract (in favor of gifts to unions that make huge political contributions to Obama).'

Explain how this has not been done in any other administration, or for any other elected official.

'attempting to take over health care thus increasing centralized government control over every aspect of citizens lives.'

Government healthcare, in the way we're going to see it, is not hostile, nor a takeover, nor fascist. Would you state that Canada is a fascist nation?

'attempting to stifle dissent by asking citizens to spy on each other and report "fishy" claims to the government.'

This was done under the Patriot Act, which mind you, another President signed into office. Secondly, dissent has been stifled under every administration, unless you happen to forget the Alien and Sedition Acts or Nixon keeping individuals under tight surveillance? We live in a police state and always have.

'attempting to stifle conflicting opinions through the fairness doctrine and internet regulation.'

How is the fairness doctrine fascist in its nature and practice? Also, you do realize that it does not exist any longer, correct?

'As for the experience, I do not think that the first term senator/ former "community organizer"/ never had a real job in his life/ couldn't even make a decision in the state senate so he had to vote "present" 129 times Obama, had any substantial relevant experience before he ran for president and I have not seen anything to convince me otherwise. '

Please explain to me, how being a Community Organizer, which mind you is a PAID position and one that I held for many years while in law school, is NOT an actual job? You lack a scope that is beyond belief.

Able - PLEASE hide till after the 26th of November. You are such a brainwashed leftwing TURKEY you could end up on a plater on Thanksgiving.....LOL

The Connecticut Democratic Party is DOA. Their tactics of running dirty,negative campaigns failed them in the last election and it is a mandate from the people of Connecticut and in the USA that the liberal,braindead Obama way of doing things has already lost its luster and in 2010 You will see some new people as Governor, US Senate and in the 5th CD. Chris Dodd and Chris Murphy can clean out their desks and pack up their offices Because not even the braindead bloggers at My Left Nutmeg or CTLP or the a-clowns who post here will be able to save Dodd and Mini Dodd. I love it that The Litchfield County Democrats got a bit rattled when The Dump DODD crowd stood across Rt 202 from Lacupola's when they had their lovefest with Dodd and Mini Dodd. The Liberals protest and it is ok but if Dump Dodd or Tea Party folks protest it is wrong and criticized. The Democrats in Connecticut need a complete cleansing from top to bottom.
