Shout Out to Dodd

In this new ad from Chris Dodd, who is probably grabbing airtime more than a year earlier than he planned since he is tanking in the polls against likely rival Rob Simmons, Dodd clamps himself to President Obama. And Obama obliges the effort.

The President gives a "shout out" to Dodd for his work on a credit card bill. Very presidential. Off camera later he urged Dodd to get some stankie on his hang-down.

Congratulations are certainly in order for Chris Dodd... see what you can accomplish when you actually attend sessions of the Senate instead of live in Iowa polling lower than dead former presidents in the primary?

It's nice to know that after a 32-year congressional career Chris Dodd finally passed a bill.
