- Contrary to popular belief, Dodd is not the Junior Senator from Connecticut; while Joe Lieberman was first elected in 1989, Dodd was elected in 1981.
- Dodd is a classic modern-day liberal: he is for gun control, has called for an end to the Iraq War, and has called for environmental and healthcare reform.
- He has called, along with a handful of his Democratic colleagues, to restore the Constitution and the right to habeas corpus.
- He is against same-sex marraige and for NAFTA and CAFTA; this is one of the ways in which Dodd diverges from this.
On Tuesday: I opine on the War in Iraq.
