		<description>&lt;p&gt;I have switched, from Obama to Dodd. Restoring the Constitution is the number one issue for me, even above Iraq or healthcare. Dodd will be getting my $ from now on.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;oops, I forgot Edwards was no longer a Senator. thanks for the reminders.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Courageous actions like that of Senator Dodd could bring some people back into the big tent again, if he somehow becomes the nominee, even for VP.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The others are still beyond the pale, even those with the audacity of the hype.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Just called Obama’s office in Chicago … in opposition to the telecomm immunity provisions in the FISA bill.  The staffer asked me how to spell “FISA.”  Oy . . . .&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And THOSE are the people who want the White House? Gimme a break!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;of course we know not to bother with Edwards, Clinton, and Obama, they would never actually do a leaderly thing like putting a hold on a bill that further eviscerates our rights under the law.&lt;br /&gt;
…
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do you realize Edwards isn’t in the Senate just now?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The onus is on EVERY Dem senator to stop it.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-1040945&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;coyne @ 116&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;i listened to the dodd special on aa. he sounded like a solid person until joementums name came up. it was really tough to keep listening after he talked so highly of his good friend traitor joe. all those guys in the good old boys club helped take out ned, it was disgusting. i’m pretty certain he’s just another straw man.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dodd’s not horrible, but when the story came out about Edwards campaign financiers it would naturally follow Edwards support might increase. But, suddenly there’s this Dodd Attack drawing all the attention. Straw man burning?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;John Edwards — Leadership&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-1041303&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;t4toby @ 152&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;X-posted&lt;/i&gt; @ &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sadlyno.com/archives/7590.html#comment-317731&quot;&gt;Sadly, No!&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Clinton and Edwards have their tongues so far up corporate ass they can taste tonsils, and Barak seems like he really, really wants to see what tonsil tastes like, as well.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;F*#k all three of them!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I called Dodd’s office and told them they had an official Seattle volunteer is he’d show leadership in this way.  How have we missed this up to now?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This really is a media issue. He has had the strongest position on the issues that we care about–Iraq and the Constitution–all along.  But it’s really hard to get that message out when the media is so focused on 1) the horse race and 2) making it a Clinton/Obama horse race.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Real smart that he stayed on the Michigan ballot.  That was one instance where being under the radar helped him.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I dropped Matt Browner-Hamlin a note asking what we can do to help raise Dodd’s profile.  He tells me that it would really help if, when you get requests from the campaign to tell your friends, please do tell your friends.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;My first choice would be Gore, but in the meantime I’ve been supporting Edwards.  Dodd’s position on telco immunity led me to check out the senator’s web site and I like most of his positions.  If Dodd takes a strong stand against this invasion of privacy I will very seriously consider switching my support to him.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
