Default Biden: Dodd Is Getting 'Living Bejesus' Beaten Out Of Him

Biden: Dodd Is Getting 'Living Bejesus' Beaten Out Of Him

Quote:
Vice President Biden attended a fund-raiser in Hartford today for Sen. Chris Dodd (D-CT), who's facing a tough re-election campaign next year -- and he didn't sound too optimistic about his friend's chances.

"Chris is getting the living hell beat out of him, the living bejesus beat out of him,'' Biden said, according to the pool report. "Why? Because he's being a leader. This is going to be a hell of a race and it's an uphill race, but Chris Dodd will prevail.''

Dodd was scheduled to attend the $500-a-ticket fund-raiser, but stayed in Washington instead for votes.

Dodd has taken a big hit for his role as chairman of the banking committee through the time of bailouts and TARP. He had also been accused receiving sweetheart mortgages from Countrywide, although the Ethics Committee found he did nothing wrong.

In the wake of his dwindling popularity, four Republicans are now challenging the longtime senator. A recent poll showed Dodd trailing two of those challengers.

Biden called Dodd, who chairs the banking committee, "the single most gifted legislator in Congress, now that Teddy Kennedy's gone."

Poor Chris Dodd. He's working and not going to campaign as much as he needs to while his opponents are no doubt slinging mud throughout the home state.

Joe Biden is an original, that's for sure. Who was that coach who used to say those stupid things? Makes you wonder if they're related.

I wouldn't miss Dodd. I don't want a Republican in his seat, but I'm not partial to Dodd personally.

I like Joe as someone WITHOUT POWER...

There are many people I like, but wouldn't let them anywhere near a political position...

Joe is 12 of them...

I had nothing bad to say about Dodd until I heard of him...

And obviously...millions disagreed with you! Some of us like his foreign policy experience,36 years in the Senate,chairmanships of the Judiciary and Foreign Relations committee.These are all things Obama was severely lacking in. He is prone to gaffs but nobody is perfect.

Yeah, his poor results in the polls surely have nothing to do with the quality of the work he's been doing as the chairman of the banking committee. His opponents don't need to sling mud. Dodd has been part of the problem and part of the poor solution.

Biden is just silly. Like your goofy drunk uncle.

The fact that he has publically admitted to being in the union's pocket and will b erepaying them for all they've done by awarding them sweetheart contracts means nothing to you??? The driving up of our national spending in order to secure the support of some of the most corrupt organizations ever established seems like a good thing?????

You realize he held the same job before the banking industy collapsed, don't you? How was overseeing that a 'great job', and how has what he's done since restored confidence?

You can have your opinion, but people in his state who have been paying attention will have theirs.
