Chris Dodd Experience

Chris Dodd has the potlitical experience needed to be a U.S. Senator. In his younger days he a Senator Kennedy would go out partying, often making the news. From one reported incident:

They are drunk. Their dates, two very young blondes, leave the table to go to the bathroom. (The dates are drunk too. “They’d always get their girls very, very drunk,” says a former Brasserie waitress.)

and

…Kennedy then picks her up from the table and throws her on Dodd, who is sprawled in a chair. With Gaviglio on Dodd’s lap, Kennedy jumps on top and begins rubbing his genital area against hers, supporting his weight on the arms of the chair. As he is doing this, Loh enters the room…

Senator Dodd was young then but he was able to seek out and befriend powerful Senators. Dodd was always able to identify where the power is and get close to it.

As for his voting record, Senator Dodd is a tried and true Democrat. Voting with the party over 97% of the time while missing only 1.5% of the votes in the current congress.

Don’t think just because Senator Dodd votes consistently along party lines that any Democrat would do the same. Dodd’s colleague, Senator Lieberman votes along party lines less than 90% of the time. We know what we get with Senator Dodd:

  • A man who knows how to party
  • A man who knows how to party with other powerful men
  • Despite these parties making the news (in some cases) Senator Dodd knew how to keep it from affecting his career. Again, Senator Kennedy and his family provided indispensable guidance in this area.
  • Senator Dodd is a party loyalist and isn’t susceptible to bouts of independent thought. His experience has taught him to cultivate big business and other powerful organizations.
  • His total failure when running for the presidential  nomination has taught Senator Dodd that he needs to get all he can from his Senate seat, there’s no higher office for him.

Senator Chris Dodd – the experience to vote along party lines.

Senator Chris Dodd – the experience to get drunk partying.

Senator Chris Dodd – the experience to ???. The future is wide open.
