There are some pretty good comments on the Dodd article including: "Dodd is a Connecticut politicain. So calling him a corrupt thief would be redundent!!!

--- the Courant noted in todays paper that Dodd received $25k in contributions and implied that was chump change and we should not be concerned. Unfortunately, they did not report how much he gained from the VIP treatment--which is close to $80k and would be more that $100k in gratuities. Nor did they explain how a Senator could not realize he was getting a significantly better interest rate than the commoners who shop for better interest rates. The Courant would like you to believe that Senators don't know what what prevailing rates are-even if they are on the banking committee.

Sen. Dodd is one of the most fatuous gasbags in the Senate. I don't have a problem with people holding different opinions from mine, but he's so clearly a partisan hack who twists the facts and truth shameless that I have no idea how or why my fellow Nutmeggers keep sending this buffoon to D.C. "
