When is the last time the Democrats selected a candidate for President who is likeable? Kerry, Gore, Dukakis - were not likeable in the eyes of the electorate. Kerry typified the elitist, arrogant Democrat; Gore was uptight and condescending; Dukakis was self-righteous and condescending. So history suggests the Democrats will pick Hillary who is the complete package when it comes to all these qualities. Meanwhile, the Republicans, following history, will pick someone who is likeable. And the Republicans will win again despite Iraq, energy, economic problems for all but the upper class, the failure to confront and find Bin Laden, etc. For Democrats, winning isn't the only thing, it's just something that seldom happens.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10214263.post-1156812758474659112006-08-28T20:52:00.000-04:002006-08-28T20:52:00.000-04:00middlesexist said... ..Dodd's appearing at the 200...middlesexist said... <I><BR/>..Dodd's appearing at the 2006 Democratic summer picnic, at the Sunrise Hotel and Resort in Moodus, this Sunday.</I><BR/><BR/><BR/>Holy smokes! <BR/><BR/>Isn't that place a nudist camp ???<BR/><BR/>Rosa Delauro in her birthday suit?<BR/>Have you no mercy?<BR/>Oh the humanity!<BR/><BR/><BR/>The whole thing boggles the mind.<BR/><BR/>Film at 11Authentic Connecticut Republicanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04867654898369536598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10214263.post-1156802796746958952006-08-28T18:06:00.001-04:002006-08-28T18:06:00.001-04:00Dodd would make a great President.

Unfortunately, the only way he wins the Democratic nomination is if Hillary Clinton's jet crashes into a bus carrying Mark Warner, Al Gore, John Edwards, Tom Vilsack, Evan Bayh, Russ Feingold, Bill Richardson, Tom Daschle, Wes Clark, Joe Biden and John Kerry and Obama's wife doesn't let him run.<BR/><BR/>On a lighter not, Dodd's appearing at the 2006 Democratic summer picnic, at the Sunrise Hotel and Resort in Moodus, this Sunday.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10214263.post-1156805150824247402006-08-28T18:45:00.000-04:002006-08-28T18:45:00.000-04:00Guess Chris is tired of being Mr. Mom in East Hadd...Guess Chris is tired of being Mr. Mom in East HaddamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10214263.post-1156799451864235502006-08-28T17:10:00.000-04:002006-08-28T17:10:00.000-04:00Schlesinger is running at about 3% in the current ...Schlesinger is running at about 3% in the current polls for the Senate race. <BR/><BR/>I think Schlesinger has a better chance of becoming Senator if Dodd gets elected President and Rell chooses Schlesinger to take his place.
