Whatshisface ‘08!

So our very own Senator Chris Dodd announced his candidacy for president today, inspiring citizens across the state to say, “Really? Uh, alright,” shake their heads and go back to whatever they were doing.
It’s not that I dislike Dodd. I think he’s a decent Senator, at least grading on the extremely low curve we have right now. But I really haven’t seen anything during his time in the Senate that truly distinguishes him or makes him look like presidential material. His platform isn’t exactly all that inspiring, either.
From the article in the Courant:
His message in every state where he stumped was the same, and it’s expected to remain that way in the early stages of the campaign: that he has two young daughters who deserve a safer, more stable world, and he has the unique blend of experience and collegiality that can promote the kind of policies that move the country in that direction.
He also has a basket full of kittens, and rainbows are pretty. And his haircut is very nice, thanks for noticing. He just got it cut yesterday.
By the way, he announced his candidacy on Imus in the Morning. Classy.
