You know, politics - especially with the presidency at stake - really brings

out the worst in us, doesn't it?

Someone just posted asking who ridiculed Dodd for speaking Spanish at the last debate.

That someone would be so petty, and sink so low as to criticize that gesture, is beyond reprehensible.

We're screwn.

1. I didn't catch that thread, but regarding Dodd's bilingual skills, I am

wildly jealous.

He's a hell of a smart guy, actually, in quite a few other areas as well.

If we all woke up tomorrow and Chris Dodd were in the White House, I think we'd be generally quite pleased.

Especially given the vacuous monkey who lives there now.

More power to Senator Dodd.

2. I want to clarify that it wasn't the DUer who was dissing Dodd -- just looking

for the source of it. I hadn't heard of it, either.

And I'm with ya on being just fine with Dodd in the WH. We'd do well with him at the helm.

3. Hi, gateley. Yes. I've found the thread and your read is exactly right.

And your point is well-taken.

Forty days out from Iowa, all I can say is I'm jealous of those Hawkeye Democrats.
