An email note from Dodd from yesterday. I will use it as my plea

[mmonk]

that Reid not derail Dodd's attempt.


(my name),

It's been a busy day, but I wanted take a moment and let you know that I have decided to place a "hold" on legislation in the Senate that includes amnesty for telecommunications companies that enabled the President's assault on the Constitution by providing personal information on their customers without judicial authorization.

I said that I would do everything I could to stop this bill from passing, and I have.

It's about delivering results -- and as I've said before, the FIRST thing I will do after being sworn into office is restore the Constitution.

But we shouldn't have to wait until then to prevent the further erosion of our country's most treasured document.

That's why I am stopping this bill today.

I've gotta run, but please visit my campaign website for more details.

1. Signed a letter of support on his website yesterday...

I encourage (beseech, beg) everyone at DU to do so.

2. Yes. The time of being spectators is over.

Especially if someone is willing to carry our water so to speak.

3. Done - Dodd isn't somebody I've paid too much attention to

But this action is raising him a lot in my estimation.

10. After having the opportunity to meet him ...

in Iowa, as well as listen to all of the candidates - Dodd proved himself to be the real deal with the record to back it up. It is really a shame that few give him due credit. I hope this opens eyes.

FYI - I am not an Iowan, but visited for a week in August to attend as many political events as possible. I went in leaning toward Obama and to my surprise ... came out of the week as a Dodd supporter.
